(2) New Front Tires, Alignment, Ball Joints tighten




Phillip is a genius. Starke Auto & Tire in Starke, Florida. There is allot to say about vehicle maintenance in a small town. #1 They want and need your business. #2 They take care of local folk. #3 Usually the only man in town who does the work. In result, customers are treated well, and wants you to come back. My initial alignment problem, coupled with a loose ball joint, caused both front tires to wear on the inside to slick tread, and today was the end of it's venture. (2) New Front Tires: 215/55/1g, w/Balance $159.90, Alignment $49.95; Tire Disposal $3.00, Florida Impact Fee? $2.00, Tax $11.54; Total cost: $214.85. Just because the Chevy/Ford town in North Florida called the car: quote a "UFO." He charged no labor fees, and fixed the driver's-side door handle, a loose interior door panel, and cleaned the carburetor FREE :) Nevertheless, no matter how great the deal, Mom will not be happy..........
