Default Can anyone recommend a GREAT mechanic in Red Deer area??

I've yet to find a good mechanic up here.

I have managed to find one extremely poor one in Sylvan Lake, a couple of sub par in red deer, a scammy muffler shop - but nobody that stands out as a great mechanic or shop.

Would love to hear some suggestions. Have a buddy or know a shop that does good work?? Would love to hear it.

We run trucks that are 5 to 10 years old. Thanks!

Are you looking for an automotive or heavy duty shop?

I haven't used him alot because our vehicle has been pretty reliable, but I've had no issues with Dave from Big Guy Auto. If you want to go a bit further, I've heard good things about Ace Automotive in Lacombe as well.

I run a heavy duty shop in the Red Deer area. I would also give another vote to Big Guy Auto. I went to high school with Brad. Talented mechanic. Give them a shout.

I do all my own repairs but if I were to take it to anyone in Red Deer it would be Erles' Auto repair, I recommend him to anyone in the area.
