Reply to "GARAGES I HAVE KNOWN"

I have had good service at both Walton's Automotive and Jim's Tire in Killen. Walton's is a full service garage, from tires, batteries and windshield wipers to rebuilding an engine. Jim's Tire and Service Center does tires, oil changes, and brakes. Both have done good work for me, and at what seemed like reasonable prices.

Clemmons in Greenhill did some work for me many years ago. I got good service from them. I did have a small problem with one repair, but it was quicky fixed at no extra charge.

The worst I was ever treated in a garage was at a station that is no longer in business (doesn't suprise me at all). It was a Chevron station in Athens, AL, on Hwy 72 near I-65. After having sat and waited 30 minutes while the attendant took his lunch break, they charged me $4.00 a quart (in 1980 dollars)for two quarts on Havoline oil. This was late at night, and was the only station open in the area at that time. The same oil was regularly priced 79 cents a quart at Wal-Mart at that time.
