Well, Ralph Jr., IS NOT one of them! I've been putting off having a MAP Sensor & poss ERG unit replaced, due to being given such high quotes by 2 other mechanics in Ocala.. And would you believe this guy, "Lil Ralph", who has been working on cars & trucks for 28 years, not only quotes me 1/3 of their prices, but shows me the part, tells me he'll do the work "for a few bucks, whatever I can afford" and also shows me how to do it myself? What a humble, kind & compassionate gentleman! When's the last time you heard a mechanic tell you that & mean It? If you have to wait to get your car fixed, they have a cute little trailer office space; no WiFi though, sorry... bring a book or magazine to read. I almost didn't want to post this becuz once the word gets out in the mainstream, rather than the great 'word of mouth reputatiin he and his dad enjoy, ,Dallas & Sons Auto will be more busy than they are already, but I just can't help myself. Ralph Jr. Is my "go to" mechanic!

We explained that he had a screw in our tire and needed either the tire to be changed or some fix flat in it so it could get us home which was 45 minutes away. He went and asked his manager and the manager absolutely said no we're getting ready to close. Even though they had 15 minutes left before closing. So he filled up the tire as much as he could and said I hope this gets you home. I couldn't believe it! Or would have only took him a few minutes just to fix it. We will never go back there for anything. Luckily we made it home an my husband was able to fix it enough so we could go back somewhere else and have it fixed.

I was doing the leg work calling around!", getting pricing, and trying to find a tire shop close to him because the tires were so bad he had he couldn't drive far! I accidentally came across e&s and honestly these folks were so accommodating, willing to work with us on pricing and they ended up putting him in 4 brand new tires for not much more than what we were willing to spend for the used ones! They promptly ordered the new tires and as soon as they came in they had his car at the shop putting on the new tires. These guys saved the day for us! I would definitely use them again and I recommend them to any one looking for good tires at the right price!

I had an incredible experience with Melvin's. I was told By Advance Auto that my alternator was…read morebad on my 2013 Toyota Sienna. After calling around to a few places, I decided on Melvin's. First, they honored the lifetime warranty that Napa and other auto parts places gave the alternator. Secondly, they gave a year longer warranty on labor than the local Toyota dealerships. Lastly, they have the best price. Replacing the alternator is nearly an $800 job. Because of the high expense, Adam took it upon himself to test it before simply replacing it. It turns out, it wasn't bad after all. My van has a lot of specialized driving equipment that allows me to drive, even though I am a quadriplegic paralyzed from my chest down. When Adam and his team were unsure how to troubleshoot some of the specialized equipment, he did not hesitate to call the handicap equipment company that built my van. They took the time to properly diagnose the problem and even helped me contact a local company specializing in the equipment installed in my van. Furthermore, they did not charge me for all their help! So instead of costing nearly $800 to replace an alternator that was not bad, I was able to replace a $26 backup battery that tied into my Specialty Equipment. I cannot speak highly enough of the team at Melvin's! Adam and the others treated us with respect, honesty, and like family. I know who to call first with any auto issues that my family and I may have in the future! Thank you for all of your help!
