Daniel and his staff are the best people, mechanics and all around good guys you'll find anywhere! I have been going to "By the Book" for over 13 years. We've never had a complaint with the work they perform. I've recommended to many friends and family the shop and they have been loyal customers also. I can't say enough about this place. Daniel makes you feel like a family member whenever we have any work done, and the thing is he is sincere about his caring for his customers. Can't say enough good things about "By the Book".
