Anita Olinger endorsed ‘Siler City Radiator’ as an excellent source for quality car repair.
When I was in Siler City Radiator a couple of weeks ago, I noticed that the sign in the waiting area said ‘Siler City Automotive’.
Whether you call it Siler City Radiator or Siler City Automotive or Siler City Radiator and Automotive Repair, Jimmy Brower and Company will do an excellent job on your car at a fair price. He has informational videos running in the waiting area, where you can learn some good stuff if you care to listen, or a lot of times you can find interesting people to talk to while you are there.

Subject: good chatham car purchase
My husband and i had a great experience buying a used Honda at Smart Cars by Wieland. I was coming out of the chatham Marketplace and saw a used Accord ( the 05 model was voted best by Consumer Reports that year, gets ~ 30 mpg in town). Anyway, i went home, looked them up online, they have a great website, btw, with everything listed: http://www.smartcars1.com/index.html

Subject: Good, No excellent car repair service in the Pittsboro area
Wow, all the negative comments regarding people’s horrible experiences with Chapel Hill Tire has prompted me to recount an EXCELLENT service experience I received from a locally owned small business. Auto Pro, just past the Haw river on 15-501. Six miles north of Pittsboro. Just past the Haw River bridge.

Subject: local robberies
In response to the post about local robberies, a home in the Chatham subdivision (off Mann’s Chapel and Dollar Rd, near Twin Lakes Golf Course) was robbed last Sunday.
On our very active neighborhood listserv, a neighbor posted this description of a van that appeared to be casing houses on Monday and Tuesday of this week.

Subject: Car buying
Something very few people know about me is that I once worked at a car dealership. Not as a salesman, mind you, but in the parts department. But I got to see plenty of salesmen in action during my short stint there (and I’m not being politically incorrect… in the 70′s, the sales staff was all male).
I trimmed mine back to the bone every year as they are trained to remain small and hedge like along the house. They flourish and grow all the time. It does not kill the trees. Sometimes city water line work effects city trees and cannot be helped.It is not the end of the world! […]
Quote from: GoneFishin on Yesterday at 10:44:57 PMI know why they cut them back this late. They cut them back late so that they can save money and only trim once a year. The hollies will be fine, they flush twice a year. This is not a rumor this is from the actual source. ... […]
It is sort of ironic that some of these treehuggers are apparently ignorant about trees. Ya know, if you love them so much, how about pick up a book about them sometime and reading it? One that isn't just poetry. […]

'Municipalities' are the worst for seeking out the 'best' selection for their situation at hand. Too often it is low bid that 'wins'. Then taxpayers pay for 'Pete and repeat', I call it. […]
