Before that, I lived in a safeish neighborhood (but you still had to keep your eyes open) in South Bend, Indiana, for almost 2 years; and before that, I lived on Cleveland's Near West Side for a year. I know what it's like to live in a city, and I know that some rundown places seem much scarier than they really are, while some places with shiny new construction are more dangerous than they let on. In short, I don't exaggerate physical danger, mainly because our society and especially our media over-exaggerate it to death for additional eyeballs and clicks and Benjamins. In general, your neighborhood is safer than you think it is, even if you already think it's pretty safe. Plaza Gas and Diesel is a janky business in a dangerous area. In the eight or nine minutes I spent here, I rebuffed two people who offered to pump my gas for me and saw two others who probably shoplifted something from the store right before they stumbled out. That's four junkies in nine minutes, and I wasn't even over in the area where people are living in and among broken-down RVs and other vehicles. The entire area around this freeway offramp is seedy; but of the multiple gas stations, fast-food places, and the motel here, Plaza Gas and Diesel is by far the worst business. Everything looks and is old and falling apart. Unless you're really short of cash, saving a few pennies here just isn't worth. Pay-at-the-pump was broken when I was here, so I had to walk the too-far distance from the pumps to the store, which is on the first level of what looks like it used to be a hotel. Just going back and forth that distance was giving me the creeps, and that was before I saw anyone. When you see the Garlic Farm sign from the 101, keep on driving. There are plenty of other safer gas options nearby, especially if you're headed north.

I had always heard good things about Jesse and his business. Unfortunately/fortunately today I had…read moreto find personally. Jesse responded to Hollister Hills within 30 minutes. If you don't know that's very fast since it's at least a 20 drive from town. I very stupidly drove off road and almost rolled into a ditch. Jesse quickly realized he'd need more trucks. He called his daughter and son to bring two more trucks. They also arrived very quickly. They set up and had the truck out in under 2 minutes. Caused absolutely zero damage to the truck which is hard to do sometimes with off-road recoveries. These guys are absolute professionals. My truck would still be there without them or very damaged by someone else not know kind that they were doing. I am very thankful for these guys and girl. I'd highly recommend them. He is not the cheapest but he's fair. You're paying for his skill, knowledge, experience and professionalism. I would have more for such a great outcome.

With that first call and some pointed questions, Pete was able to diagnose the issue on my 1968 Allis Chalmers Backhoe. (Bleed the injector valves) Pete showed up the next day(Morgan Hill) inspected the machine, bled the valves and in 10 min Allis was running. He continued to evaluate the equipment and made helpful suggestions to avoid future problems (That smokestack is too short, you could burn a valve, these hydraulic hoses are going to burst, this weld looks suspect, etc) Don't guess, call Pete he will save you time and money by fixing the right things to get your equipment going again.
