Clay and the crew at Dirks have kept my 2007 Mazda 3 Sport rolling for the past 8 years. The car is now 14.5 yrs old and looks and runs like it did when I paid it off 11 yrs ago. They have exclusively been my auto shop since 2014. They are honest, informative, helpful, and NICE. I have just purchased a 2018 Mazda 3 and will be bringing it to Dirks for all it's maintenance and repair needs in the future. They get my vote every year in the Best of the Best competition!
