Pickups Plus on S College. Blake is a great guy and always straight forward with what work needs to be done.

I agree with Maggie16. PickUp+ does quality work and great customer service. Plus the owner is an Aggie Class of 06 I believe.

Sleeziest shop in town, do not go here. I've had a truck in and work I had just completed magically needed to be done before they could align it. Also had a neighbor drop his car off and it came home with a different (much cheaper) battery in it, even though the battery wasn't part of what was being serviced. Had to go fight to get the original battery put back in. Please please please find somewhere else to go.

Love Pilgers. I've been using Pilgers for almost 15 years with no issues. Honest guys who do awesome work and if it's something outside their wheelhouse they will recommend someone local (ex: blew up a rear axle and I knew they didn't service a full rebuild but I called them to see who they'd recommend).

I've got a 6.7 Powerstroke and for anything diesel specific I'll use The Right Shop out on Hwy 30 as well.

I called around asking for ballpark pricing to replace the valve cover gasket on my car.

Aaron was most expensive. They got the job and it started leaking within 6 months.

Brazos Valley was most expensive. They got the second job, and it hasn't leaked again. They did the same job on the same engine in another car a couple of years ago. Gasket was pinched on installation and leaked within a couple of days. They did it again at no charge (and I didn't have to ask for the no-charge). After the second time, it never leaked again.

Now, for Aggieland. I've used them before and not had an issue. They even let me buy a starter from O'Reilly for them to install, with the understanding there would be no warranty through them. That saved me $100 or so since I didn't have to pay their markup on the purchase.
But in checking with them on the gasket repairs, they wouldn't quote me without seeing the car. I explained that I just wanted a ballpark to see if they were in line with other shops, and that if I took it to them, they were more than welcome to diagnose the issue and let me know if I was wrong. The person on the phone said they can't give estimates over the phone and without diagnosing the problem. I will never call them again.

We had an issue with the kid's car. They are SUPER busy but they were honest and treated us right.
