    Hey all, hope your gas is cheap and your truck is running well, I need a referral, please; 2006WorkHorse has relocated to 01071, Russell, Mass about 15 minutes west of Westfield.

    Question: Who is the great Tacoma mechanic within a reasonable distance? Anyone here local to me?

    Hi there, just curious if you ever found one. Looking to have some front end work done on my 2018.
    Thanks!

    Hey epack, I recently had a good experience with Preferred Auto in West Springfield. Small shop, owned/operated by Rick Larivee. Cindy answers the phone. Tell them Gregory sent you. Good luck! HNY.

    I will keep them in mind! I looks like they get great reviews. Thank you.

    Out of curiosity, what did you have done there? I need some front end suspension work.

    My regular guy retired and closed up shop. His receptionist recommended Preferred, Larivee is her Uncle. For the first time they just sorted some minor electrical stuff and ran down a dash light vac leak to a bum gas cap. But they did it quickly, same day, and I thought priced it right. It's a decent looking shop. Start small if you can. I'll go back.
