Have you guys heard anything about ultimate off-road here in Yuma?

No. I would just avoid FST here in phoenix at all costs.
PM a person named Poolman on here. He's not on very often, but if he is he might know and he lives in Yuma.

I don't know either... but I did find this:
http://www.yumaoffroad.com/

Not really much help though.

I'd just stop by, get a feel for what they do, their general attitudes. You can learn a lot about a shop by what's parked out front and the pics on their walls.

The best way though is to figure out what the employees and mechanics actually drive. Then you'll get a better idea as to where their opinions are coming from. Magazines.... or personal experience.

Well.... I guess see up close how they are built. All show or all go. Doesn't really matter which, as long as it matches what you want to do to your ride.

I guess it might be worth it to stop in and mention you are looking at upgrading your Toyota. If they give you a bunch of blank stares or worse just tell you to get a Jeep instead... I'd move on. Don't fight for respect at a shop you are planning on giving money to and expecting quality work in return.

I was going to give the shop in my last post a call but they aren't even listed in the phone book or anything thing. Hummm! May have to make a visit.
