As a woman vehicle owner, I can tell you that I haven't always had the most pleasant encounters with garage mechanics...until I met these guys. My dad apparently took his truck there about 20 years ago and next thing we knew he was hanging out at the state garage. After meeting the guys I understood why. I've dealt with mechanics who take one look at "a girl" and immediately go into testosterone or 'here's a sucker" mode. Not these guys. They're the most down to earth honest guys (car mechanics or otherwise) I've ever known. They'll explain and show you what's going on with your car if you want and they won't talk down to you or make it sound overcomplicated to justify overcharging like some places do. These are people you can trust. My only regret about dealing with the guys at the state garage was that I couldn't take them with me the years I lived in NY and CA.

I can tell you this much. These guys knows the business inside and out. You won't find better mechanics in the Altoona area. If they can't fix it (which I highly doubt they couldn't) then I believe no one could. I've known these guys all my life, and every year do some sort of business with them. They treat their customers with the utmost respect, and will go the extra mile to make sure things are done, and done right. You won't be disappointed having them repair your vehicle. Stop in and say hello to them, they make the time for each and everyone who steps into their shop.....guaranteed!
