Lee has taken good care of us there. I now schedule all of our appointments through him.
Had a sloppy mechanic work on my truck leaving oil so bad that they had to clean it twice when I brought it back.

Another time.... I took my truck to them and they said my warrantee was void because of a 6" lift, but it ended up being a stuck 4WD actuator in the front axle. The service writers wanted to charge me $89 to test drive my truck, then said it was the drive shaft angle.... it wasn't. I talked to Lee and he split the cost for me. I've NEVER before been charged for a test drive. They reported to GM that my truck was modified and voided my DT warranty. They knew the truck was modified when it drove in... kinda hard not to tell it's had a lift.

Don't get me wrong, Lee and the gang treat us great when we take the vehicles there now. Just had a real rocky start.

That's why I say the are not mod friendly.

I already have one recommendation for Jim Ellis but was hoping you guys could give me some more input.

Thanks!

Come see us at John Thornton Chevrolet. We would be more than happy to take care of you. We have sold many Camaros to members here on Camaro5 that would surely recommend us. We hope to see you soon.

I completely agree, I bought my car at John Thornton Chevrolet and I couldn't be happier. Tell them you heard about them from Camaro5 and mention my name.

Question for those with LT's. How do you plan on getting around the emission testing?

I would like to get LT's but don't know about the inspection when it comes time.
