More Convenient Isn’t Always Better

Technology and Ecommerce afford us many luxuries. Truly, in this day and age, we have everything we could ever want or need at the touch of a button. No plans to leave the couch today? You can order food from your phone and have someone deliver it to you. Hate the grocery store lines and inevitable ensuing scavenger hunts? No problem. You can go online and tell someone what to put in your bag and then pick it up curbside. You can make reservations, schedule appointments, shop…the list goes on.

When it comes to parts for your vehicle though, ordering them online is not always the way to go! We recently had a customer come in who had pre-ordered their bumper online and had it delivered to our shop to be installed on their vehicle. Sounds great, right? Not so much… The manufacturers decided it would be a great idea to fold the bumper up like a taco in order to save a few bucks on shipping!

Meet… the Taco Bumper! No, ladies and gentlemen, this is not the latest craze in vehicular body styles, nor is it a futuristic version of the original with a built-in flux capacitor. It’s called not everyone cares about you, your hard-earned money, or your time. But we do! Skip the online orders and let us take care of it for you! We have established trusted working relationships with parts suppliers all over the valley, both factory, and aftermarket. So, believe us when we say there’s no need to take a chance on online orders! See for yourself the difference (and try not to laugh.)
