My son went out of state the other day and his car broke down. I went to help him and had to get his car towed to a gasstation to get his car fixed. Since we had NY licence plates, I was told that I got ripped off for the price..
What I am thinking is to get everyones favorte Auto repair spots and put them in a poi, This way, If someone needs one, Just look it up and can be more trusted than just finding the one nearest you.
What do you think?

I have sent you a few emails asking about the listing I gave you back in the early part of the year that never made it to the file, but I have never heard back from you. If you would like me to resend it, please get back to me soon. Maybe your settings don't allow Email from non establish mail clients like myself?

What Makes They Will Repair
It may be helpful to add the makes of vehicles that they will repair. I know a great repair place in Atlanta, but they only work on Toyota and Lexus. The employees are ex-Toyota and ex-Lexus service techs. I would not want someone rushing in to find out that they will not repair their vehicle.

Donicus, I'm not completely sure....
take greadit cards? LOL
But when you enter their shops, and an employee comes out of the office or shop to gread you, that would be the perfect time to ask if they accept greadit cards:)

very good idea. I am goint
very good idea. I am goint to check out the one recommended here. I have't found any one yet to be very honest.
People, if you use one of these and agree or disagree depending on your experience, then please post here.
Bobkz can append (+1, or -1) in the description, depending on the feedback.
Would someone download this current file to a nuvi
http://www.poi-factory.com/node/3358
Then take a peek at Extra's>POI's>your file name, and tell me if you have only 19 shops show up on the list? The file says it contains 193 shops. I'm baffled.
I've repeated this loading three times, same results are only the first 19 shops on the list.

Thank you Rayzers for telling me about it!
