Wow, where to start! $7000 is what I payed dan for a new engine and trimmings! The original quote was for $5000, the new motor was $1,495. Worst shop experience I've ever had to deal with. Him and his crew had my truck for 2 and a half months. I trusted dan, me and my family had just moved out of town (4 hours away) but my truck was stuck in longview with a broken rod! Dan informed me it was not cost effective these days to rebuild so the most cost effective option was a new motor, I did confirm this with a couple other crooks/shops. I was out of town with not many options so I decided to trust dan (big mistake) excuse after excuse after excuse why they just couldn't seem to get it running. Finally he was done, I picked it up, drove it 20 miles it was over heating lights and gauges going off. Stranded on I-5 I got a ride home, dan had it towed back to his shop. A month later he still couldn't get it to run right. All the while not even once did he call to chat with me, almost seemed to avoid me, definitely seemed to blame me for all his problems. In the end I had to have it towed from his shop to another shop, they bandaged it up for me enough to drive it 300 miles home. To this day 2 months later I'm still trying to work the bugs out. Beware of this place! Nightmare! number's on the paperwork and motor did not match. Unfortunately when I pick it up and drove it 20 miles, I was hoping for the best and payed him. My bad...UPDATE 11-6-17 still trying to work the bugs out! number's on the motor don't visally match, but supposedly if I take the motor out I can easily see matching numbers. UPDATE, 2-12-18, this was a truck I needed to run correctly. Dan has still not made it right! So there the truck sits, supposedly with a new motor. UPDATE, 7-4-18 the truck is still sitting here not running right! Still waiting on dan to give me back some of the money he owes me so I can get the truck to run right. Stilllllllllll waitinggggggg. If your reading this you should really think twice before using this so called shop! read more
