They bring you around and introduce you to every department head, great customer service they really take the time. I had a couple other places looking for the same bike for me but FRIEND AND FRIEND nailed it.
Andrew Hurst, The salesman I worked with at Friend and Friend is natural.
I bought a brand new Goldwing from them recently and a new Kawasaki KLR adventure bike a few years ago, both were great experiences!!”

“A great local business. Organized, available, professional, thorough, and honest. No padding of bills, no ‘sell’ on unnecessary services, unlike two shops up the hill from them. Seems they are able to stay staffed, likely since they do business the right way.”
“I've been dealing with the crew at Jim's for over a decade. Their attention to detail, pride in their craft, and ability to assess problems quickly and efficiently are the reasons they have a customer for life.”

“I would recommend Darlings for its professional and friendly staff. After the sale is complete, there is a long list of services that Darlings provides(most free) for being a customer like fluid top offs, free inspection and some other things. I’m super happy with my new used jeep, and know that should anything unexpected to happen, I’ll be taken care of.”
“Excellent service I had a caliper freeze up 4 o'clock am this guy was nice enough get me in I stood there 20 mins it was done and we were missing hardware in box had to remove off of the other caliper and he still had me in and out fastest caliper change I have seen besides a NASCAR race lol”
“While in Acadia national park a couple months ago for a visit, I had some car trouble and ended up at the Walmart auto care center. I had the best experience being assisted by Joe and Chris. They were helpful and patient with me in explaining the issues, how they could help, and recommending my best course of action. Truly top notch service and care!”
“I've always had good experiences here. They always get me in super fast and take care of my old jeep. The new manager is super friendly and everyone I've met that works there has been very kind. They actually go into detail about what's wrong and show me where, how, and why instead of just a list I have to Google to figure out, so that's very appreciated. It is a little pricier than some places but other places around have a 2-3 month wait. I need to get back and forth to work so it's worth it to me every time and I know the work is being done well. Really appreciate having a place like this around when something goes wrong.”
