I state this with a certain amount of reluctant embarrassment, yet nonetheless it is the absolute truth. I cannot change a tire, a spark plug or a windshield wiper and can barely determine the difference between an Audi or a Civic. Simply put I fall into the definite realm of a "non-car guy,"this despite owning a battle tested '97 Toyota Corolla that I have driven across Canada almost eight times for the better part of seven years.
I have tested this car in every way possible, driving up back country logging roads in British Columbia and sharp partially cleared mountain passes in the Rockies, I once even managed to fit eight adults in said car for a Lake Louise-Banff return trip. I have done things in this car and to it that I cannot mention in a public domain, but have greatly enjoyed my relationship with this beast of a machine.
I realize that I may have strayed from the inital goal of this review, but the affinity I share for my car must be stated first before I can delve into the impeccable service it has been afforded by one man. That man is Les. Finding an honest Mechanic is tantamount to finding an honest Lawyer, and when it happens it's like finding a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow-and I have found this ever elusive pot in Les under the Truway rainbow. At Truway the service is frighteningly fast and reliable and I have never once even considered straying, as Les understands the subtleties and complexities of keeping a car that should be parts by now on the road.
Cash is king.
