    Price marquee before the 210 freeway
    Jeff B.

    (Pumped 6/22/12 F @ 7:30am): The gouge is over; competition is a bitch! I passed Jay's Shell Gas Station everyday to and from work, and under by breath, I would curse them for their astronomical gas prices. Drive about a mile in either direction along Foothill Blvd. and you would find other gas stations usually $0.20/gallon cheaper. But after 2+ years of no competition at the corner of Foothill Blvd. and Angeles Crest Highway, a new sheriff came into town who posted "affordable" prices on its illuminated price marquee display. The night before the giant-slayer arrived, the lowest price gas at Jay's was $3.99/gallon. On this particular morning...$3.75/gallon! Take that mother effer! Now, if I didn't need gas so badly and wasn't running late for work, I would have certainly gone to the new Chevron station across the street. But frankly, it wasn't convenient for me as the Shell station was on the same side of the street of the 210 West freeway onramp towards Santa Clarita for work (it is literally right before the 210 East freeway onramp towards Pasadena). So with a hug grin on my face, I pulled into the station up to an available pump, went through the motion, attached the "G-Tube", and let 'er rip! The station was big with plenty of room and pump stations, and at this time there were four to five cars. It also had a mini-mart and car wash attached, so the full amenities were nice features. My tank was soon filled up (a bit slow for my taste)...with over 10 gallons of gas and $39.50 charged to the credit card. There was no service to speak of. I mean, it was all self-serve...unless you went inside to buy some snacks, etc. The pay station accepted my Ralphs Rewards and credit card, the gas hosed flowed adequately, there were squeegees and paper towels, and I got a receipt. And there was an air and water station. Parking wasn't/shouldn't be any issue - it's a gas station! If you need to park, then something is wrong! However, there was some room along both ends of the station should you need to park for any reason. Since it's at the base of the Angeles Crest Highway, you would see many motorcyclists usually on the weekend hanging out. Overall, Jay's Shell Gas Station was of the full-serve kind, which was a plus should you need to do other things. However, their gouging days have cemented their reputation in my eyes. Although their gas prices was finally comparable with other surrounding stations, history precedes them and I found no value as noted by the prices I quoted above (total bill was around $39.50; no tip required). I only hope they learned their lesson and continue to keep their prices down. The atmosphere was clean, simplistic, spacious, and the location was excellent. The attire was pure casual, so put on the t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip flops. And they take my credit card of choice...AMEX!

    These guys are great! They are straightforward, honest, prompt, kind, knowledgeable, and fair. They…read moreare excellent mechanics! They also do a thorough inspection. I originally came to get my drive belt replaced, and while they were working on that, they noticed that my engine was not secured properly. They even showed me how the engine was wildly vibrating. I'm no mechanic, but even I could tell it was a big "yikes!" This was a big problem that other car maintenance repair shops never pointed out when performing routine inspections, and it seemed like a pretty big oversight, so I'm very grateful to Vic's for spotting this, showing me, and getting it fixed quickly. I feel like they genuinely care about my car and offer the time and attention required to keep it running smoothly for as long as possible. They also do not charge a diagnostic fee! That was such a pleasant surprise since every mechanic or auto shop I visit charges something when inspecting the car. I brought it in the other day because I wanted a second opinion on recommended maintenance from another auto repair shop. I called just a few minutes beforehand, and shortly after I arrived, they quickly put it on the lift to look underneath and gave me their opinion. And there was no charge! I was very grateful, and it helped me make a decision on truly necessary repairs. I feel a bit more valued at Vic's than at other big auto repair companies, and I know they do good work at reasonable prices! My car is driving great! They seem more down to earth, honest, and attentive. I highly recommend them!

    Vic and the mechanic took care of my vehicle, very professional service will definitely come back…read more I definitely recommend this business. They answer online with a quote really fast. Prices are very good
