I’ve been using Mad Max Engines for years. Hr has always been fair and honest with me. Once, he even came to my house to repair a truck that couldn’t be driven to his shop. He worked on the truck for over an hour ~ resolved the problem and only charged $ 100.00 His shop isn’t a ‘showroom’ and there is no customer lounge ~ but his prices are 1⁄10 of ‘dealer’ prices.

I have been using Mad Max Engines for all my car repairs since 1990. He is honest, fair, an excellent mechanic, and is always trying to do the best service possible, and has always succeeded with my car problems. Once I had my land cruiser 1978 Mercury Marquis towed there as the brakes were making a horrible sound when applied, and I was afraid to drive it there. I was expecting a $ 400 to $ 500 complete brake overhaul, when the problem was a loose nut rolling around in the brakes. He removed the offending nut, and problem fixed, and the only charge was a smile from me!!! This was not the only easy fix he has done, and this only validates his honesty. The shop is not a high tech outfit, but he has all the stuff needed to diagnose most problems, and if he can’t fix it, he’ll tell you and not waste you time with the ‘lets try replacing parts until it’s fixed’ game. I will not take my vehicles anywhere else!!!
