Dealership. Never met a honest or straiter group of people.

Two I have personally used and recommend are C and R Auto on Burbank and K and M on Siegen. Both have been very honest and trustworthy. Highly recommend both. Coworkers use K and M as well and like them.
Don’t think they are open on Saturday though.

Jim’s alignment on Airline. Ask for Vince. Believe they’re open 1/2 day on Saturday. He’s been working on my trucks for about 25 years, and I always have him take a look at them beforehand.

Express Care automotive on Sherwood before Airline. Only place I will bring my vehicles if not under factory warranty. Jason is one of the best most honest people ive ever met.

Thank you, everyone! Seems like most reputable mechanics are closed today. I called price Leblanc’s Toyota but they haven’t responded.
The truck is at Team Mazda. I’m hoping they let me get it checked out this week if we can agree on a price today.

Second K&M. Jason has done a couple of these for me. Reasonable price and a very straight shooter.
ETA: C&R is also a good choice. They were who I used for years until I moved to StG.

A couple of the best mechanics I have ever known no longer do it professionally but continue as a hobby and are usually more than happy to provide advice or assistance.
Even on the weekends for us amateur wrench turners!
But, maybe they aren't "real mechanics"?

I took one to Agco a few years back and they did a decent job. I wound up not buying the car from their inspection.
