"We have been bringing our vehicles to happy Danes' since 1985. They have serviced vehicles for our landscaping business and now personal training. Regardless of the vehicle, they have had a specialist for that vehicle. Nothing can replace the local's touch that Happy Dane's provides their customers. When you walk in and the person behind the counter greets you by name and with a smile, you know you are in the right place."

"I have taken two vehicles to Happy Dane's for work, both minor and major. In each case, the office staff was friendly and professional, the work was done to my satisfaction and they stood behind what they did. Mechanics are also willing to take time out of their busy day to talk about their work. Happy Dane's makes the extra effort to make doing business with them easy and convenient. I recommend them unconditionally."

"Happy Dane's has been my car care company in Bend, OR for l5 years. Appointments are easy to schedule, my car is ready on time, I always understand what was wrong with my car and what they had to do to fix it and I have never been overcharged for anything. They took the time to know me and to know my car. What more could you ask for?"

"Based on one visit for an oil change, Happy Danes appears to be an auto repair place I can trust. At least I was happy enough with their service to return if/when I need a more costly repair. I had a 2:30 appt -- I arrived and my car was promptly driven into the garage and voila, about 30 min later, I was ready to roll. And their price matched the very good price I was getting at my favorite shop in LaVerkin, UT. Friendly service too. "
