Quick question. Missed an apt. at Toyota dealership where I normally do this and now they are booked out for the next week. So looking for recs for somewhere I can take a truck in to do a walkin with normal 10K stuff like oil and tire rotation and a vehicle inspection as well.

TIA

They don't do vehicle inspections,but there is a quicker sticker behind them (has always had horrible wait times when I am there though)

I have never had to wait for more than one car at the Quicker Sticker behind Sevciks. We have 4 vehicles and always go there. Maybe if you go on the last or first day of the month….

I went in the middle of last month. 5 cars ahead of me and they gave me a 1-2 hour wait estimate. Said they are short staffed

In fact, their little "seating area" was completely full

Like I said, 4 vehicles, four different months for inspections, and only had to wait for 1 car (a few times) in years of using them. Guess I'm just lucky!

I get out of Quicker Sticker pretty quickly.

Don't go after people have picked up kids from school or left work for the day.

It was about 8am. I was at Sevciks when they opened, then went straight to quicker sticker.

Maybe it was just an odd day. Who knows. Ended up going to the quick lube on William J Bryan on my way home. In and out in maybe 5 minutes for inspection.

It needs to be screenshot and posted here for all time.

That is a keeper.

Doesn't want people that escalate an issue.

Goes online and posts a rant that escalates the issue.

Valvoline on Rock Prairie behind the Exxon at Wellborn. We do most oil changes and inspections there but they do more.

Never updated, sorry.

Ended up doing the Sevciks/Quicker Sticker combo in CS. Could not be happier with it. From initially pulling in to Sevciks for a basic 10K check/fluid swap to leaving QS was ~30 minutes and everyone was very pleasant to work with. Did it early on a weekday.

Thanks for the recs!

It gets even worse the deeper you dig.

I won't post my findings as I know this is a heavily moderated board BUT you can do it yourself.

I do not know how true the above statement is, I assume this is only for a conviction and not arrests.

I'm not picking sides on the QS thing, but I fail to see how he can pay any more than minimum wage unless he (or any inspection place) starts charging 20 bucks a car?

If they raise their per-car price to afford better crew pay, then the majority of clients will no longer go there.



Me, Myself, and I have had nothing but good experiences there. It's close to my house so that's where I go.

My real complaint is that he takes advantage of women. Hubby has gone there multiple times and never had the BS of the fluid levels are low which was a lie. And I know other men who go there and have zero complaints.

So my recommendation is for females to go elsewhere.

I will admit the owner sounds like a bag squirrels. I don't think he's ever been there when I go.

He's in a little office off to the side when I have been there.
