  Great experience at Gulf! Service was quick, efficient, and reasonably priced. Tommy was super helpful and friendly. My car sounds much quieter now and runs so much better. Highly recommend!

  I had a screw in my tire causing a slow leak. It was a Sunday so not a ton of places were open and we were expecting heavy snow so many places that said they were open online were closed early for the coming snow. Mavis told me it would be at least 2 hours before they could look at the tire but when I called Hillside they told me to come right over. There was only one young man working there and he was busy with the…

  steady flow of people coming to get gas but he had me in and out in a short time. I wish I had gotten his name to give him proper credit for his help and I truly hope the owner reads these comments. I would definitely use Hillside again and recommend them to anyone in the area.

  I went into the place ask for motorcycle inspection. Owner started yelling at me. Telling me he doesn’t have time to do a $6 motorcycle inspection. I did not respond. I just kindly pulled away from his establishment. I will never return there again. Was very rude to me.

  Really nice guy helped us out patching up our tired after we had a pop on our way home from PA to MA. Called around 5 on Sunday and he said he's been there before he'll help us out. Had us back on the road in under an hour. Thanks man

  May2022: Another visit for inspection. This time our Audi. I really appreciate this guys doing everything so fast! Thanks again guys! April 2022: Visited again for my inspection. This time, I also asked them to balance and install my summer wheel/tire set. I was told that my new tire/wheels are balanced but just in case. Then we Did relearn the TPMS and everything was done. RICK also quickly fixed the muffler tip…

  issue. Everything was done within 1-2 hours and I paid little above $200 including the $37 inspection. I am sure there are enthusiasts that would do everything themselves except the balancing and inspection which can save almost half. This was my first time using summer winter sets and having TPMS relearn. Most probably will do those steps and wheels changes myself but was very happy to have it done at hillside. Most importantly, Rick was so careful with my new black wheels and lug nuts. I believe he deserves a special Thanks. Anytime I visit this place, I have a smile on my face. Thanks guys!!!! March 2021: Visited for emission test and everything as done very quickly. They are focused on their job, reliable and honest. Special thanks to Nick. Great Job!

  Was stranded on a Sunday and Daniel came to our rescue. Very kind and helpful service on a day that no other places were open.
