I just had a rear main seal replaced on my engine at Autotron in Pleasanton, Ca. It was the best service I've ever had at a shop and that includes toyota dealers and private mechanics. They called me all the time to ask questions to get to the root of various problems and they kept me informed of what was happening.

They were very knowledgable, friendly and specialize in Toyota, Nissan, Mazda and Mitsubishi. I highly recommend this shop.

I don't think I could drive that far to get my truck worked on.. must be almost 10 blocks..

One of these day's I'm going to put a tow bar on my daily driver miata so that I can just tow it behind the 4runner. It would make dropping off the truck at the shop much easier and my wife wouldn't have to drive from SJ to pleasanton to pick me up and drop me off.

what about riding BART home?
