I need someone who is very experienced with servicing Ford's and know all the known issues especially with a heavily modified vehicle. I need the person for approximate 1.5 hrs and need a detailed report and a thorough inspection. This needs to be done during the day tomorrow.

Adam and Camille were fantastic, professional and thorough. They took their time examining the vehicle and pointing out issues and explained everything well. As a RWC inspector Adam was able to articulate exactly what needed to be done to get the RWC. They were also very accommodating, fitting in an inspection with a day's notice and also patient with the seller who changed the location on them at the last second. Highly recommended!
