Anyone have any good recommendations for a TRUSTWORTHY shop in BR? I don't really want to bring my truck into the typical Firestone/Goodyear tire shop for maintenance.

ETA - in South BR... Highland / Essen/ Bluebonnet / LSU Area

Mark at University Car Care. His place looks like a dump but those on this board that know him knows he does good work at a fair price.

There are a few good shops

Agco Automotive is excellent. Need to call ahead as they stay booked

Yep and you did mention BR. I can also first-hand recommend Chabils on Range in Denham.

I also vote for seeing Mark at University Car Care on Highland Rd. Been taking my cars there exclusively for 25+ years. Very honest and fair priced. He’s also an incredible auto diagnostician.

Close to LSU on Burbank, highly recommend C and R. On Siegen near Perkins, can't beat K and M Auto. Both have been extremely honest and done high quality work for a while. Can't go wrong with either.

Z at Burbank tire. Never tops in price, always tops in quality.

Mark is the best! He actually has mechanical engineering degree from LSU . Honest as the day is long.

ETA: his son is a co-founder of Southern Marsh.

Phil and Nicks always did me right though they stay very busy with fleet work for LSU and LHP.

O'neal Car Care have been my go to since I moved to that side of town.

C&R on Burbank.

Been using them since 1994. New owner Greg is as nice & knowledgeable as the previous owners if not moreso.

Walking distance from me and they have always been honest and prices were never too much higher to make it worth going anywhere else less convenient. I heartily recommend them.
