Prior to getting a new car, Whitey's and I were on the road to long term commitment. Relationship bliss is not something one normally feels for their auto repair shop, but true nonetheless. \n\nThe good ol' Altima decided it wouldn't drive faster than 5 mph and I used Yelp to find a reliable place to get er' towed in Old Town. Thank you Yelp. Whitey's solved the problem (limp mode?) and got me in and out asap; without charging me an arm and leg for \"diagnostic tests\" or pressuring me about any of the other things you can make a convincing sell on for a car well over 100,000 miles.\n\nA few months later the Altima came up with a new problem involving the electrical system and the sound of my bank account draining, and again Whitey's delivered. This time they even gave me a ride back to work when I got dropped off to inspect the damage.\n\nThe problem happened again shortly, and they were cool with me just dropping it off and working it over, no charge, when they very easily could have rung me up again a la the shady mechanic ploy.\n\nBefore it was time to replace the brakes I decided I'd had it with the car, sometimes no more car payment comes with other expenses that can add up, and I got my dream car instead. I can't say that I miss Whitey's but I am glad to know its there waiting for me. \n\nIt wasn't you... it was me.
