Great service performed my expert technicians. Had my car unstuck and recovered in less than a hour after my call for help. Highly recommend Dougs.

Literal 5 star service. Truck started to overheat on the Bluegrass parkway because a water pump failed. Within 20min of calling the dispatcher the tow truck was there and they got me in and going again in 2hrs. Good people.
