Since The Service Center closed, Sterling's Lawn & Garden is one of the few independently owned, legitimate lawnmower companies in town. There are several individuals working out of their homes who say they'll repair your lawnmower and my husband has tried working with a couple of them but has never received anything but problems in return. One gentleman left our disassembled lawnmower sitting outside unprotected for four months (during three hurricanes) until it rusted so badly we had to buy another lawnmower. Sterling's sells mowers as well as parts and supplies for lawn mowers. They also sell and service Husqvarna products.

My first complaint with NAPA Auto Parts is the choice of colors they painted their building. Avon Park has a Main Street program and is trying to improve the atmosphere of our downtown area. There is a paint color code the stores were supposed to follow, however, NAPA decided they would not stick to those colors and painted their building a hideous cobalt blue and bright yellow. In the 15 years prior to that, the building had been painted in understated colors. Since they care so little about the community in which they are dealing, I will no longer do business with NAPA. I also feel NAPA's prices are higher than Advanced Discount Auto Parts, which is a little farther from home. I choose Advanced Discount Auto Parts, though, because I think their prices are lower and their service is more personal.

Joe Rutigliano is a dedicated auto mechanic. He's also something very rare - an honest auto mechanic. If Joe can't fix something, he will tell you before he begins the work. We had a Mercury Tracer that needed the transmission rebuilt and he helped us find another business that was better able do the job. My husband had a Toyota Corolla that needed some work done and Joe said he wouldn't work on it because the exhaust system (I believe it was) was so complicated and difficult to work on. He's an expert auto mechanic, however, and loves what he does.

There have been a couple of times when I've really needed a tire but couldn't afford new tires. You know, a used tire to get me by until I could afford a nice new tire. Florida Tire Terminal has always been willing to sell me a used tire to get me through. They have never pressured me to spend more money than I had and have never made me feel like a bad person because I couldn't afford a new tire. They are in the back half of the building which sits on Main Street between the two sets of railroad tracks, so they can be a little difficult to find.

Once housed next to Hendricks Market, Economy Auto Parts now owns their own building a few doors west. I think their prices are higher than Discount Auto, which is out on US 27, but they are a friendly group and are usually willing to help you solve your car problems. At times, they will even walk out to the parking lot with you, look at your car, help replace a part and discuss what ails your vehicle.

My husband once had his own business. He was dependent on our family diesel van for picking up and delivering items for his business. When the van broke down and wouldn't run, we could not take it to a dealership to have it repaired because we didn't have the money. Mr. Chesnutt was willing to fix the van and allow us to make payments on the repair. He did an excellent job and we didn't have anymore problems with the van.
