I called around, most shops said no but like others this one treated me like crap on the phone and acted like it was a completely ridiculous idea that I wanted someone to work on my quote "vehicle from before the turn of the century." It's not a steam locomotive, you charge by the hour, if it's harder to work on charge more. I'm only leaving 3 stars since I didn't actually have work done by the shop so 1 feels unfair, but acting like it's hard to change the starter on a 1991 jeep Cherokee is insanity.

No other shops in town would touch something so old so James to the rescue. He was willing to try old fashioned fixes rather than just throwing parts at the car which I always appreciate. In the end his prices were fairly reasonable considering it's alaska, and he got my jeep back on the road! Only downmarks at all if you can call it that is sometimes communication can be a bit slow. But know I can be an over communicator so I'll share some blame there. Overall would recommend!

He was quick to diagnose the issue, found the part on the same day and had the car running within a very short window from arrival. He was a great guy, very professional and down to earth with extensive knowledge. I would call him again in a heartbeat. He was reasonable with his assessment and cost. He was very approachable and easy to communicate with. I'm thrilled with the outcome. Thank you James. M.E.

When I pointed this out to the owner, he pushed the broken pieces back into place, and told me "it's fine". At this point, unbidden the mechanic some over and said, "I didn't do that". I said ok but it wasn't broke when I dropped it off, and the owner told me to go to hell. I said I wouldn't be back, he said fuck you, he would write my name down so I couldn't come back.

We really rented a car to visit the Mendenhall Glacier but once that beauty was seen, off to the world's smallest Costco side quest for lunch!! What's different here: - No gas/fuel center - No rotisserie chicken - No in-house bakery. They have baked goods, but from an outside bakery and selection is small. - No pizza in the food court. They have mostly everything else food-wise - we got the usual $1.50 hot dog combo. The food court is inside, and there's a small covered seating area outside. Besides the compactness and difference noted above, seems to me just like a regular Costco. The samples here are tasty and the same friendly staff. The outside backdrop is beautiful (just like the Costco in Bend, Oregon!). I wouldn't go out of my way to come here but will indulge him in Costco tourism for novelty reasons since we already had the car.
