Good morning just some
feedback regarding a question i asked on the
forum a few weeks ago,I wanted to get my Ford F Truck serviced in
Perth and had some good
feedback,I took the truck to Armadale Automotive 0499499830 and spoke to Will the owner who told me he had never serviced an F Truck i gave him the service book which he read and did a great job.He dropped me down at the Armadale shopping center where i had coffee and read the paper,2 hours later he came and picked me up and charged me $88 per hour for labour which is half the the price i was quoted by several other mechanics.
I live on the east coast of NSW and have never met this guy so if your in the area and want a good job at a reasonable rate give him a ring.
Cheers
Humpback

Hope you told him where you got the referral and suggested he could get more business if he advertised here. Enjoy the rest of your trip.
PS everyone in
Perth is nice ;)

At $88 hr you got a steal. Most garages/mechanics are $100 hr minimum and most are $120+.
Nephew owns an F250 (his managers) and a Silverado for himself, and lives in Armadale - I must ask where he gets them serviced.
Knowing him though, he'd pay $200 hr and wouldn't notice it!
Good to hear good
feedback about mechanics who aren't costly, who don't stuff things up, the minute they put a spanner on an engine.
Too many dealerships are full of these style of "parts replacers" and the dealer workshop always makes you pay for their errors, plus a dozen other errors as
well.
