What's the OB's opinion of this place? Do they do good work?

TIA

Good guy. Funny guy. Good work.


Last time I was there, I was paying for a D-ring shackle, and ended up staying for 20 minutes because they ordered out lunch and insisted that I eat some

Great place, I found just buying parts the price is good. To get them to do work the price is a bit high but the work is very good.

Great place and decent prices, I went to the one on Florida and got all new leafs and hardware for my boat trailer. He gave me some extra parts for free and left with only spending 80$ to replace both leafs. I'd go back for anything else. They also rebuilt my dad's boat trailer and never had a problem with it since .

all good. They told me a job would only take 15 minutes, then they ended up spending over 2 hours work due to a previous owner's custom job on a rewire in my truck. they still only charged me for the initial quote and were more than happy the whole time. Good people.

Great folks and service. they are always working in the shop - does not look like a lot of BS goes on in the shop. Very helpful and I have not found a trailer problem they can not solve. also willing to talk you through something if you are a do it yourself type.

I just had my entire boat trailer rewired by them after my dads dog ate all the wires off of it. They do good work.

Cracked a axle later on a Saturday 60 miles south on I10. No way of moving the triaxle boat/trailer. Called them and they were fixing to close for the weekend. Gave them the size of the axle and they had it ready after hours for me without charging me anymore then regular cost.

Two thumbs up for the service and replacement parts.

Now changing a axle on the side of the interstate in the rain is not fun.

Buddy and I went to go buy a trailer for his bobcat once, and while we were talking to MG, he turned around and started taking a leak right there. We knew we were gonna buy a trailer from him after that

Screw Mike Gerald trailer.

It never fails every time I call them for parts they act like they could give a rats arse if they help me or not. Almost to the point that I am bothering them by calling. I am sick of dealing with these people at the parts desk and would rather drive somewhere else just to deal with somebody who actually cares about my business.
