Mariposa
I detest car maintenance. Well that might be putting it mildly. I would prefer if cars were just disposable and when their bits and bobs stopped working properly, we could just toss them in the recycle bin and move on. But since we don't live in a world where that exists I am so super excited that I foun Bogi, Doug, and the entire crew at 180 Degrees Automotive.These people do everything right. First of all they don't pressure you on anything. In fact, they go out of their way to tell you if something isn't worth the investment. Seriously?!! You're committed to saving me money? I must have entered bizzaro land.The shop is fusion of art gallery, wifi ready, keurig toting, comfiness so if you have to spend anytime there at all, you will not fell like you have to go home and shower afterwards. The staff is super friendly and they all seem to know what is happening to your car and who exactly is with it at the blink of an eye. I love this aspect. I don't feel like some number on a parking tag hung around the mirror. Before I picked my car up on the first visit, my service advisor knew more about my car's ticks and blurbs than I did. And on subsequent visits, his memory of what was done and what things were listed as "something to think of down the road" were gone over. It almost feels like taking your car to a really good physician.Roll yourself down here and make sure you get one of their value program card things. It has saved me a ton of money and makes paying for maintenance way less painful, especially when you consider how much you are not burning on monthly car payments. This is honestly the first mechanic that I have fully trusted and have forced me to happily look at the practicality of keeping my car until the wheels acutally fall off. :)
