Stuart says: "It has been my pleasure to serve the Franklin and surrounding areas, the people and the community have truly been a blessing".
In 1961 Larry Coleman and his brother-in-law Bill
Taylor
opened a transmission shop and started
44 year history of growth and development.
Every manager who operates a store comes through the ranks
from the bottom up, so that everyone is a fully trained ASE certified technician. When an employee attains the
expertise, we start looking for a location for him to manage. We expand to create opportunities for our employees.
The growth of the company
has been steady over the years. One of the reasons for the sustained growth
and expansion very well may be the company motto, which was
instituted from the very beginning...
" Whatever It Takes For Customer Satisfaction.
Always give more than you promise.
If you do that, they have nothing to ask for.
Customer relations is one of our very strong points. You can
easily
lose a customer and friends over warranty.
Don't find a reason to get out of it.
Good competition is healthy,
It makes you better and the customer benefits. It
is also important to be friendly and get along with competitors."
