“George did a pre-purchase inspection (PPI) on a 2011 Toyota Prius. He was very knowledgeable both about this specific vehicle and about cars generally. It's evident he has a lot of experience and expertise. He was thorough in his inspection and explained things clearly as he went. He had helpful advice about preventative maintenance, near-term services he recommends, and what I could expect to see longer term. I absolutely recommend his PPI services, and I plan to call on him for any future assessment and repair that needs to be done to the vehicle.”
