    Not sure if I asked this here before. but is anyone in or around Simi Valley, CA that knows of a good and honest mechanic? I have a '21 TRD OR. my awesome mechanic retired during the pandemic and haven't been able to find a new one.
    Been going to the dealer and really dislike it.

    TIA.

    There's a new off road mechanic on LA ave across from the Big 5/Dunkin that specializes in toyota/lexus vehicles. I haven't taken my truck there, but I'm planning on having them install a front camera soon and it looks like they're highly reviewed on yelp. Trying to get away from the dealership myself (they made a mess of my rear dif ... didn't clean up after swapping the fluid and it looked like a leak).

    It depends what you’re wanting done, but if its installation wise, you could hit up urban.ops.offroad on instagram. He’s pretty local. I haven’t had service with him but many people seem to be very pleased with his service and knowledge.
