We take our cars to Balcones Exxon, 5400 Balcones Dr, (512) 452-5422, located near Mopac and 2222. We had a friend that worked there so we trusted them to do the work. He's moved on to the Lexus dealership, but we still take our cars to them and we've been very happy. Good luck.
i go to what used to be called dans texaco, but is now travis heights automotive. right next to the whip in, just north of oltorf, on the west side of i-35. i have been going there for 12 years for all my auto needs and they have never done me wrong, always been honest and always done a good job - ive never felt ripped off or scammed at all - very nice people there. i have a ford taurus now and my previous cars have all been fords or had ford engines (mercury and a mazda), and not that fords are complicated to work on, but they do a good job on them. are you a ford truck man? is that all you dri-ive? do you have any boundaries? do you compromise?

I went to Lamb's with a coupon for a cheap oil change and, of course, they tried to convince me I needed 4 new tires. That was about 6k miles ago and I'm still going.
