I always recommend them to all my friends and family. If you aren't from Burnt Hills or the Halfmoon area, I would still recommend Gil's over anyone else in the area. Even if the drive is a bit longer. I promise you won't be sorry! I hope they remain with us for many years to come!

Fast forward to the day before New Year's EVE and I break down in Boston on the interstate, car shaking violently out of control. Took it to a different shop and they told me there was NO WAY they were changed, they were clearly old. Called McKay's back and the best they could offer was to maybe refund the parts. Told them there was no way I was driving back to Boston for garbage spark plugs and they refused to help me since. They did not touch my car while they had it, I even picked it up in the exact same parking spot that I left it in. AVOID THIS BUSINESS AT ALL COSTS.

So I live in the Burnt hills area of Saratoga county. I moved here from Clearwater Fl. and I needed…read morean inspection for my Truck. I took it in to the biggest Auto Repair Shop in this area right off HWY 50 and the Mechanic told me that i would have to spend like 2600 dollars in order to get it inspected. I also knew this guy from the Restaurant where I worked as a Bar tender so I thought for sure I could trust him but I soon learned that I couldn't. I went there because it was a reputable company and the biggest in the area. I ended up leaving and by the grace of God He lead me to Round Lake Auto. I met the owner Dave and asked Him to inspect my truck and He did. He told me I needed tires to get it inspected which I knew but only two. He also told me that my truck would need other things in the future and went through everything with me, part by part. The last place told me that I needed to replace my whole rear end of the truck do to rust and this is an area that Dave brought to my attention. So I asked if it had to be done now in order to get it inspected, He said no and showed me why. Yes it had rust but it wasn't rusted all the way through or a danger to myself or others like the other guy had said. I ended up buying four tires instead of the two because of the price he gave me on the two. I would have needed them soon anyway so I purchased them through him. Soon after I met Dave I bought a newer Suburban and I wanted to get some work done but Dave and his crew were to busy to jump on it so I took it to the biggest 4x4 after market part place in Schenectady and had a lift done. They went over the estimate by 2400 bucks by the time it was done. I asked them to make sure it was done right and to check to make sure everything worked perfect. Not only did they go over by twenty four hundred bucks they also didn't check crap because within a couple of days my transfer cases needed replacing. I took it to Dave and told him I was pissed that I didn't wait for Him to fix my truck. He checked it over and found that I needed not only the front transfer case but the back too. He replaced both but while he was working on it he had to replace a CV that the last place had just installed. He fixed everything perfectly and shocked me when I got the price. I looked online and knew what everything was going for and he also told me the same things and gave me the same prices. I already knew that I could trust Him because now I have known Dave for about two and a half years. He could have charged me at least a thousand dollars more but he didn't. Also over the years I've met his customers and ran into people all over my area who feel the same way about Dave and his crew as I do. Round Lake Auto is a custom shop and can handle engine builds to repairing auto collisions. They have a in house Dyno and His son Razick can tune anything under the son. Dave does most of the work but has a lead mechanic named Shane who can do anything and Wyatt who handles all the rest. After 3 years Dave and the guys have become like family to me and Dave my best friend in NY. If you need an inspection, repairs or if you want a car built and expect good work, and honest prices, I highly recommend that you go see them. I in over 3 years have never heard anyone say anything other than what I have wrote on here, so go see Him, YOU WONT REGRET IT!!!!

It took a couple visits to repair the AC, which is still running great but no luck on the roof. I may have to take it to someone who is experienced in those things.
