BEST MECHANIC SHOP IN NORTH OC!!!NO DOUBT ABOUT IT!!!If you need a mechanic, STOP LOOKING and read why.If you are a mechanic, you'll wish you work here.If you think you are a "competitor", let me tell you you are not but you and Roys Boys share the Love and Passion for making cars run fresh out of the factory standard if not BETTER!I'm not the typical customer. I keep cars highly maintained AND the cars I use go through A LOT of miles. Maintenance is the KEY to how I operate every car. I bring 7 cars to ROYS BOYS: Three cars are of family members, 3 are a small rental fleet I operate and the one is a personal vehicle. ROYS BOYS are to cars what the Horse Whisperer is to a horse. They have a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience and I kick myself every time I stall to do their recommended work.Recently: I would have saved a lot of GAS money the past 4 months if I had followed their recommendation to change the transmission fluid in my daily driver. I don't want to talk too much about my mistakes so I'll just say that the moment I followed their advice and changed the transmission fluid, my car went from 52.5 MPG to 59.2 MPG...not bad for a 2020 Toyota Corolla Hybrid with 196,100 miles. My car PERFORMS BETTER than the window sticker out of the factory said it would brand new! OK, so it's a Toyota of course it's good.I have a 2016 Kia Forte5 I bought with 107,000 miles roughly 18 months ago. I use this car as part of my small rental fleet. It's a car that is notorious for engine problems. How bad is this Kia's reputation? Unfortunately my Kia was involved in a small bumper bender that required a tow to the body shop. The tow truck driver asked how happy I was with the car because not only does he often tow these cars but his girlfriend's Kia motor "blew up". I began to tell him my story...the guests I rent to can't believe how AMAZING the car runs. I don't get to personally drive it often but recently I went out of my way to get new tires so that I could have a good drive with the car. The car has nearly 140,000 miles now...over 33,000 miles of ROYS BOYS expertise and I would LOVE to meet the original owner of the car to ask that person if the car was ever more fun to drive. I mean that little car is FUN TO DRIVE because, obviously, ROYS BOYS puts their hands, eyes, ears and minds onto that car to run, I'll say it again, BETTER THAN NEW. I've had several guests tell me how good that car runs and ask, who's your mechanic? I HAPPILY tell them every time!ROYS BOYS saves the day when things went wrong. My wife made 2 decisions, one bad and one AMAZING. Her bad decision was listening to me to buy a different 2016 Kia Forte5 before we learned of their terrible engine reputation...her GREAT decision was her woman's intuition to buy a warranty offered by the dealership. ON THE CARS FIRST OIL CHANGE, we take it to ROYS BOYS and they tell us the car had NO OIL. ROYS BOYS did the oil, advised us to keep an eye on the oil level and gave us the news about the terrible reputation this Kia car has in the industry. I'll spare you the details and tell you that a few months later ROYS BOYS' front office took the warranty information and spent THEIR TIME on the phone to get the warranty company to not only honor their deal but give her a rebuilt engine...I forgot the exact numbers but essentially ROYS BOYS SAVED us TIME, the car AND $6-$7,000 on a car that probably wasn't worth the repair! My wife's brother drives the car now regularly. I got a chance to drive it recently and you can definitely feel the ROYS BOYS touch!My ultimate business goal is to grow the rental fleet to over 100 cars...I want ROYS BOYS to service every single vehicle. If they have to open a second or third shop, I'll be honored to help through more business. The vision and the Spirit resides with the current ownership and I'll forever take cars to ROYS BOYS. They won my TRUST with their automotive expertise, reliability, efficiency, honesty and results. Hands Down if you have a car, ROYS BOYS is the shop that has to do the work.
