In the great game of life, there are mechanics, and then there's Ryan Mode of Mode Automotive.--/// WorkmanshipRyan diagnosed a really difficult no-start issue on my Saturn caused by a faulty fuel pump-- one that many other mechanics in the area had been unable to diagnose.From fuel pumps, to oil changes, to 60k services, to transmission fluids-- Ryan has been my mechanic for the last 25,000 miles, 3 years, and every problem he's fixed has not needed a second repair.--/// ServiceThe waiting room has these amazingly comfortable sofas. And the guy is so damn personable and friendly. I actually look forward to my oil changes (lol)!"Mode Automotive this is Ryan Speaking!"It's a one-man-show. He answers the phones, writes the receipts, does the oil changes, and adjusts the TV in the waiting area-- he is the throw back to old-style mechanics you got to know and trust.All jokes aside. This is what I mean:You know Ryan will stand by his work because that's HIS name on the shop-- not some manager, HIS hand that you shake at the end of any service-- not some receptionist, and the money and reputation HE builds with YOUR business IS his family's livelihood.That's trust you can't buy.--/// PriceThere's the old saying, "You want it done? Or you want it done right?" As a broke college student (now broke young professional), I can only afford to get repairs done once. And Ryan does his repairs right.While he is certainly not the bottom of the barrel in terms of prices-- he is competitive. More importantly, after he fixes it, you can bet damn sure you won't be back.--/// Final CountWould I come back? Is that even up for debate?Gentleman, scholar, warrior, and mechanic-- Ryan is hands-down the best mechanic you will ever have. Courteous, professional, and honest.
