Sears Auto Center

Got a flat tire right outside of sears… I was pretty much without any option but to move my car to the Sears car repair. Surprisingly those guys understood that I was under budget made the best recommendation and changed my tires within the hour. Definitely gonna come back to replace my other tires

Oil change and brake inspection — $ 20! Good price and nice prompt service. However, I asked the lady helping me several times if they were going to topped off the fluids… and they never did!

I knew this day was coming, since we drove here from Northern California in late October… duhh-​duhh-​duhhh-​duhhhhhhhhh The day of the all-​weather tire. Despite copious evidence to the contrary, my husband remained firmly in denial until he fell down in the parking lot on some ice. But I digress.
Clearly, my «performance» tires (i.e., good cornering at high speeds on dry roads) were not cutting it. Thankfully, we still have our California plates so the good and wise people of Omaha were giving us wide berth anyway. For those few aggressive SUVites who like to see the whites of my eyes in my own rear view mirror, one small shimmy in slushy intersection usually did the trick. Omigosh, it’s a California driver! Watch out! (Hee-​hee, I learned how to drive in snowy NH, but there are limits to my driving talents, especially with inappropriate tires.)
Tina at Sears Auto Center in the CrossRoads shopping mall (home of Target and a double big top) took great care of me. She took expert measurements of my treads (Old Mill Toyota, how could you lie to me?) and explained everything. They kindly bagged and loaded my «performance» tires into my trunk for some summer fun.
Be careful out there… honk if you see California plates :)
