Had truck towed (by their affiliated tow service - prompt/efficient, but not cheap!), and Scott readily assessed the situation and gave us a call. While waiting, we took the round trip 1880 Train out of Hill City to Keystone! Enjoyed the ride. Got the call from Scott that he'd sorted out the problem! Walked back from train to shop, and picked up a running vehicle. Made it to the Badlands by 8pm - able to keep our itinerary. J-Rafter Ranch RV were kind enough to accommodate us by leaving the trailer at our site, and not charging us extra. Grateful for the top-notch service all around, and we made the best of the day!

Talk about a good way to ruin a vacation! We had our alternator completely quit just before we got to our destination in Hill City. We figured we were trapped for days. Instead, these great guys got the part in the morning in Rapid City, worked on it right away, and got us rolling by 2pm! Unbelievable! And what a vacation-saver! After reviewing pricing, they were even less expensive than it would have been to do it back home in Colorado.

DJ's was recommended by an auto parts place and Ski was able to get parts shipped to him from out of state and had us back on the road. He is one of the most honest and hard working mechanics I have ever met. I didn't realize it until I got the bill but he came in under his estimate and passed those savings to us (several hundred dollars). He kept me informed on the progress and showed and explained all the repairs that needed to be done. I wish he was closer to my home, I would use him for all my auto repairs. One more thing, Ski called me a couple days after the repair to check on us and make sure we made it home alright.

By that time, it was almost 6pm, but when I called W&J, they answered the phone, and told me that they could have a mechanic look at my vehicle within about 20 minutes. True to their word, they fit me into their schedule, and I was back up and running by 7:30pm. The mechanics (two of them!) that worked on my vehicle were very friendly and professional. Although they advertise themselves as an 'oil change and tire repair' shop, they are extremely knowledgeable on general automotive repair. To top it all off, the bill was incredibly low; I can't believe they can stay in business with rates that affordable. If I lived anywhere near Custer, this company would be my primary mechanic shop.

Sent the car back to get the grill fixed and so the bumper would stay on properly and headlights would mount. Called frequently and got ignored or told "we don't have time".

Two incredibly knowledgeable mechanics started working on it. They end up staying a bit past their closing time, apparently because they were helping me. I can't thank Ty and his crew enough. When everyone said "NO" Tyler said "yes he'd help me", and he never hesitated. I was entirely impressed by the mechanics who helped me.

I was there at 720 the morning after getting to town. They got me in immediately and had my van fixed up with new pads and rotors in about an hour and for less than I paid at my usual shop back home!

The connections were secure but I discovered that in addition to the electric fault the water pump was leaking. I called South Side Service and explained my predicament. Pat told me that if I could get the car to him he would look at it. I was able to push start the car and drive to his shop. Pat called around to locate a water pump and starter without success. There were no parts available. Not even in Rapid City. We drove the car up onto the hoist and Pat agreed to look at it Saturday. Pat called me Saturday morning and stated that he got the starter working by striking with a hammer to free the brushes. Not a permanent 'fix', but it started the car. Bravo! He was able to stop the water pump leak with a bottle of radiator stop leak. Another temporary 'fix' but good enough for me to try returning to Minneapolis. I stopped at the Chevy dealer in Rapid City to inquire about parts availability. The dealer also stated that there were no parts in the entire region. I continued on to Minneapolis without any problem. The point of this review is to commend Pat of South Side Service for doing what he could on a Saturday. Thank you, Pat. Lee
