2006-11-15 16:48:15   After getting fleeced by Midas in Woodland (on an '87 Civic of all cars), I gave Mike Argo's garage a chance and from then on don't go anywhere else. For all the near-deaths my car has been through, Mike has always managed to revive it on the cheap — he's really running a "car clinic". Mike and Rick are super-friendly and always make time to explain the ins and outs of the car, taking the full vehicle history into account. I recommended him to several of my Honda-owning friends and all of them have stuck with him for car repair as well. I just wish Mike would bend his Honda/Subaru-only rule and take my wife's Nissan Sentra when it's having problems. —VivekMathrani

2007-10-25 10:28:40   Sadly, Mike Argo's closed over the summer - I talked to Mike in the July timeframe (if I remember correctly), and due to personal reasons he had to close down the shop. I will definitely miss him, Rick, and the car clinic, both for their quality work and helpful explanations. Anyone have tips on a good alternate place to take Hondas for service? —markspiller
