Yes, excellent prices, knowledgeable people and top-notch service standards.
yup. Great way to gain customers

I don't do tire rotations (waste of money). When tires are bald, just buy another set of used tires. (Got a set of 4 tires from the forum for $500 w/ only 2k miles driven on them)

OEM Oil Filter cartridge & gasket = $7
Cheapest 0W20 7 qts motor oil = $20 after rebate/special from O'Reilly/PepBoys/WalMart
Labor = $0

Done every 10k

I check the DOT code, to ensure the tires were manufactured in the last couple of years and no sidewall damage.
