I did not expect a good experience thinking that it would be like trying to get your vehicle that had been pounded. I feel that other storage locations would not had met my expectations even though I had lower them in my mind. I would rather return to Uncle Bobs instead of risking in having bad experience with someone else. Thanks!"
