Why are auto mechanics so shady?
Whether charging you for unnecessary repairs, scaring you into making repairs on the spot instead of shopping around, and charging exorbitant markups on parts on top of their hourly rate, it seems some shops have spent more time learning how to extract money out of the customer than repairing vehicles.
Bilo don't play that.
While "honest mechanic" seems more an oxymoron these days, Bilo is as honest as they come. He doesn't flip out if you want to bring your own parts (bringing the wrong part just means delaying your repair). He also will show you where things are broken, where service technicians have screwed up (thanks Jiffy Lube!) and keeps your budget in mind when coming up with repairs.
Plus, he has the skill and knowledge to make repairs, not just swap parts.
If you're looking to be charged 200% markup on parts on top of $85/hr labor by all means go to one of the franchises in town. If you want a fair price and a competent, honest mechanic Bilo is your man. read more
