Been going to Sam for well over ten years now. The main reason I started with him was due to the advice he gave us concerning a used car we were interested in buying. We brought the car into Sam for a quality/sanity check. When I came in he put the car up on a lift and showed me all the things wrong with the car. Needless to say we didn't buy it. I started bringing my car to him after that, my wife stayed with a local dealership until they pulled a number on her regarding the cost of something - she called me, realized the price was out to lunch, brought the car into Sam and got the work done for nearly half the cost. Sam speaks to you in simple terms, helps you understand the problem and what the solution is, what the optimal cost would be, and you feel you have a relationship with him, unlike how I feel at a dealership where my general feeling is that the person I'm dealing with is trying to up sell me on something, recommend work that's not needed, and bottom line the person I'm talking to is not the person in the garage where he's either turning the wrench or he's there where the person turning who is turning the wrench is and if there's an issue he sees it and KNOWs what's going on. Sam is the best, can't recommend him highly enough for integrity, quality of work, and taking care of his customers.

Golden gears is a great place for car repairs. Their estimates are reasonable. The owner Sam takes the time to explain the problem, options available and pricing. The front desk is also responsive to customers. Overall they are a class outfit - reasonable, great personal service and very high quality of work.
