This is my second time shopping for a car here. I am in my 50s and have bought a lot of cars. I…read morenever knew that I had to negotiate a second set of keys for my car. The set of keys I was given had a key tag that said 2 of 2 on them. After buying a BMW X.3 for nearly 20 grand I had to negotiate a new key fob that cost me $200 as well. This is not Customer Service in my book. When I know purchasing a used vehicle there is 1500 to 2000 profit for the dealer. I will shop elsewhere next time and when my 3 kids and my staff need vehicles.

The last two times I purchased, I was also trading my current vehicle. Both times, I was surprised by their generous offer on my trade while at the same time, I was buying my vehicle for THOUSANDS under KBB. This most recent time, the KBB value of my vehicle was about 8-10K higher than the price I was paying. Additionally, Mike worked to get me the best possible financing with a different bank with a lower rate. It was an all around great experience and any car I purchase in the future, Select will always be my first choice and where I always tell people to go before they look anywhere else! John, Mike, Steve - THANK YOU!!

We pulled in 45 minutes before they closed. They were literally the kindest people. They fixed our car which had too much transmission fluid in it, causing it to overheat (which was filled by the dealership mechanic). They had to stay late past their closing time and allowed myself, two children, and dog to wait while they quickly worked on the car and for an extremely reasonable price. I have never had such a positive experience. I only wish I lived closer to give them all of my business.

With the A/C compressor kaput on my wife's car they had us back up and running in one day. Thank you both for your patience with this cranky old man getting us through a highly stressful situation with kindness and professionalism. They truly do treat you like family here at T.Doctor. I have been a customer for over 15yrs and have enjoyed watching Jim Markle grow his small trans repair shop to a full service automotive facility. As a retired maintenance mechanic I'm picky to the point of being "Type-A Retentive" and have always been impressed with the level of attention to detail provided here. Jim always has a top-notch crew of mechanics and as a hands on every day owner operator makes sure that the work is always done to the highest standards. You just can't go wrong with T.Doctor for all you automotive needs...they're the best hands down.

About 6 years ago I was having car trouble again. And was searching for a mechanic who would not ripe me off. My 30 year old son told me: " Hay pop try this guy Tommy's Autoworkers. I have been using him for a few years". So! I give Tommy's Autoworkers a try. To my supersize I found Tommy's a fair and Honest mechanic. One time when I first used Tommy's I took my Car in to him knowing that the problem with my car was a very small problem. I wanted to see if he was going to rip me off, telling me it was a big problem. He fixed my car in a very short time. I asked him how much was it going to cost? Tommy told me nothing! it was a small problem. That was over 6 years ago. And I still go to Tommy's Autoworkers. He is a fair and Honest man.

I would not recommend Ahren's-- especially to university students-- based off of my experience with…read moretheir team and their extreme upcharging of parts. Their pricing is not honest at all. I took my car in with serpentine belt issues. For my make and model, this part generally costs $30-$50. Ahren's priced this part at $80. Their diagnostic examine also found belt tensioner issues. For the serpentine and belt tensioner replacement combined, they quoted me $512 of repairs. This is extremely high and gives me the inclination that this is another mechanic in town that is trying to take advantage of college students who are not as informed on car repairs. I do not think the presented quote is fair by any means so thanked them and let them know I would not be having service done their. I was presented with an $85 fee for a half-hour diagnostic look. This fee was not disclosed beforehand at all, was not mentioned verbally, and I did not sign anything agreeing to this fee. Take your car elsewhere. I took my vehicle here just out of convenience of location, but have previously had much better service at the Firestone off of Archer and with Billy's Auto Repair & Towing. UPDATE: I went in to pick up my car and wish I could leave a negative review. If you take your car here and leave without even having any work done, you will be charged an $85 minimum. I asked why I wasn't informed of this in anyway (no signatures, no verbal inform) beforehand and the woman working the front desk had the owner come out. He raised his voice and started asking why I hadn't taken my car to Billy's or somewhere else. In his rant he referenced other reviews that I have left on Gainesville for miscellaneous places which was unsettling. He lied and said he listened to my phone conversation, saying that I was informed of all fees beforehand-- I certainly was not and he wouldn't play the recording. I have lived in Gainesville for many years and can say assuredly that this is one of the shadier places in town. They use deceptive business practices and their prices are anything but honest.
