I have been going to McSpadden's for about 3 years and have never had a problem. They are honest, friendly and willing to take the time to explain how things work. If they aren't too busy, they will even take you back in the shop and show you the details of what they fixed. Most importantly, on several occasions, they have had the chance to overcharge me and didn't. Once, my Honda CRV broke down driving to town and I took it to Howdy Honda to get fixed. Honda told me that the head gasket was blown and gave me a repair estimate in the thousands. They also pushed real hard for me to trade in the car for almost nothing and buy a new one. I was skeptical, so I took it to McSpaddens and they showed me that all that happened was that a nail on the road flew into my radiator and caused me to over heat. They replaced the radiator and the problem was fixed. I've had a few similar situations where other shops gave me pricey repair estimates and McSpaddens showed me that the other shops were not really fixing the real problem. They are very knowledgeable and seem very honest. FYI: The parts they use are from the dealer, so they may not be the cheapest, but they do it right so you don't have to have it done again Pros: Very Personable Cons: none really

I think McSpadden's Automotive is one of the few shops in town that understands long term thinking. If you are honest and treat the customer respectfully then they will return. I have been using McSpadden's for many years now and have always felt they understood this concept and treated me appropriately. It is a simple idea but one very few practice. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a mechanic they can trust. Pros: honesty, quick, very courteous and informative Cons: not open on weekends

We were headed out of town for a long road trip - our car started having problems the day before we were scheduled to leave. I called the mechanics we've used in the past and they were completely booked up. I was paniced. Then I remembered Susie on 102.3 FM, The River, said that's where she took her vehicles and was very happy with them. So I gave them a call - and they said no problem bring it on in. Whew! We left the next day for our road trip as scheduled without a hitch. They saved the day! We had a great family vacation. They've definiately got my vote for life. Pros: Awesome Service Cons: None
