“We went here for a brake issue we were having and they were incredible. Instead of forcing us to buy new parts, they fixed the part that was having issues which made our total cost so much less. My wife went in to speak with them, because she made the initial call and they treated her with care. I appreciate that because mechanics have a bad rep. We have a family mechanic and he was busy, so we went here. I’m glad we did, because we’ll most likely come here instead of the family mechanic now. The prices and the service was that good. They gained a new customer that day. I can’t say enough great things about these guys. Salute and thank you again. I hope you get to read this.”
“Guys were great. Did everything they could to solve my problem SUV. Worked overtimeto help me and ended up not charging me for any work since they couldn't resolve issues”
“If you're not a Costco member and you live near one of the gas stations, the gas alone can easily cover the $60 membership. At $0.20 per gallon typical savings you're getting $2 - $4 per fill up, which means filling up a little over once per 2 weeks will get you all your money back.More importantly, my car had a problem where when I would fill it it wouldn't start. I believe it's now been 3 times where the attendant has helped push my car to a nearby parking space to get out of the way of traffic. Once they also tried to help jump my car as well.Finally, a tip: the nozzles at the gas station are long enough to reach over your car, so it doesn't matter which side your tank is on. The lines can be long, but if you go early (usually before 8:30AM the lines tend to be pretty short.You're welcome ?”

“Jim was absolutely great! He was friendly, helpful, and took time to help me out right away. I will definitely be going back to them next time for all my car repair needs!”
“Good gas for a good price. They are cheaper than the other gas stations in the area. I am a regular there. Nice place. Not fancy, but clean. I recommend this gas station to others.”
“Always go here when prices get a bit too high elsewhere. The lines can be horrible. But most everyone is down with the system, so they know how to maneuver the area easily.”
“Cheap reliable gas. The lines are long but there's four lines and 12 pumps. As long as people realize there's others waiting the lines move quickly. I took off a star because I think the layout was poorly designed over all.”
“Extremely efficient, friendly, and helpful. I came in an hour from closing to ask about dropping my car off another day, and they had the problem fixed in less than half an hour for a beyond reasonable charge. They saved me a ton of stress over work transport logistics, and were so kind to boot. They are awesome!”

“On Sunday 10/13 on the way home to DC from a road trip, my car started flashing lights, specifically the AT Oil Temp light which meant I needed to pull off and stop driving. This shop was the closest to where we were, and although it was not open, they let me leave my car on their lot and fill out a form for their mechanic.
While the head mechanic was not in until Tuesday (10/16), he called my partner very quickly, diagnosed the issue, and said he could have it done by that evening. He personally went to the Subaru dealership to get the part, and like he said, the car was done that night. My partner handled the communications, so I am not sure who assisted, but based on the reviews, I am assuming it was Tek. He replaced my transmission valve body ($1,180), valve body gasket ($15), and valve body wiring ($76). All in all, the total labor cost was $360, bringing my total with tax to $1,732.
The repair was done fast, and based on my research, at a very fair price. My car is now running smoothly, and I don't foresee there being any further issues. If I am to ever have an issue with my car again. I will absolutely bring it back to this shop.
Thank you!”
“Excellent customer service, and I had a headlight bulb change. Replace it quickly, especially on an infiniti ex35. No appointment! Price reasonable! Will return.”

“Always busy, so try to pick the best time to stop for gas! It’s close to a highway exit, so you’ll often see big trucks filling up. Some pumps are occasionally out of order, but the line usually moves pretty fast. The app is user-friendly and makes the whole process easier.”

“They diagnosed the problem, couldn't fix it that day, but did not charge me for the diagnosis (even after volunteering to pay). The advisor was patient explaining the situation, and was honest about worst-case scenarios. I left with the feeling that they were straight with their customers, which, of course, I appreciate.”
“They normally don't have too long of a wait. Somedays, they have pumps that are closed, but they normally run smoothly. I did have my bank tell me they put a hold of $100 on debit cards if you fill up with one.”
“These guys are not about making just a buck. They give you honest and genuine feedback about your vehicle, helping you to be cost effective on repairs and trying to save money.”
“I go here all the time but can't buy gas here because I need a higher octane. I do enjoy the employees here especially the really nice woman behind the counter. She's a sweetheart for sure.”

“Let’s get to the elephant in the room first— for most, the location/space sucks and at peak times, the traffic gets crazy, but there’s nothing you can do about it. Columbia is expanding. However, the location works for me because it’s easier to run errands and get gas due to the surrounding establishments.
That said, the staff has always been very friendly to me. They’re great about correcting those who like to go against the traffic rules there. Gas is always priced as good as it gets in Columbia (sometimes beats Baltimore too!).
The air machine is great when it works. Tip: get gas on [your] right of the attendant station to make it easier to access the air pump after you have gotten gas.
More tips:
-Get gas when it is cooler (early morning is best, but later in the evening works too) as cooler gas is more dense, whereas the heat can expand the gas making your total fill up cost more than what it may otherwise. This is also why you shouldn’t overfill your tank so as to allow space for expansion when it heats up during the day and any run over may not even be used by your engine.
-Try not to get gas when the truck is making a delivery as this has the potential to have too much unsettled gas, causing you to pay (just a little) more than usual.
-Pump on the lowest setting to avoid getting too much air mixed in and paying (slightly) more.”

“Love this place specially for the mechanics. As a family run business, they’ve always shown genuine respect towards me and my friends/family. Quality work and honest communication towards the issues with our vehicles.”
“This is your standard 7-Eleven. It has 14 parking spots (I counted them) including 1 for handicap. It has an air pump but, I believe there's a charge to use it. It does sell gas, drinks (including slurpees), some hot food items like pizza, snacks, it has a lottery ticket machine (though this machine has acted up a number of times), an ATM and has an Amazon package ? pick up called Tangerine (see review and picture ?). I have found the staff helpful.”
