font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hi Darrell and Al,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A while ago my mom referred me to Pride because she knew and respected Al from the Cash group.&amp;nbsp; Since then I’ve received great customer service during the several times I’ve been into the shop.&amp;nbsp; However, I wanted to send a special thanks for the customer service I received when my car was at another shop.&amp;nbsp; Yes, I know that’s unusual, but my car broke down away from home and your shops and I had to tow it to a totally unfamiliar shop.&amp;nbsp; I received some, what I felt, odd information from that shop and called Pride for help.&amp;nbsp; Darrell spent several minutes talking with me and ultimately said go ahead an give them the OK to run one hour of diagnostics on the car, if they can’t find it in that time something is wrong.&amp;nbsp; Well that was great advice.&amp;nbsp; The shop found the problem quickly and repaired it for a reasonable cost.&amp;nbsp; I wanted to thank Darrell and Pride for helping to ease my mind in a very challenging situation.&amp;nbsp; This certainly was way above and beyond customer service and I am grateful!&amp;nbsp; I will always remember that and I’ll be referring Pride out whenever I’m asked.&amp;nbsp; Thank you so much!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Best,&lt;br /&gt;Lisa U.

Simple… We love this area and wanted our next great car care location to be in our own backyards. WE were amazingly blessed to find the old Hometown store…it was just the right place for us. &lt;/p&gt;         &lt;p class="linksbottom"&gt;The original owner was “hands off”, tired of the car care business and has wanted out for some time now. While the old Hometown crew recently had a decent technician or two in the fold, the store was understaffed, un-marketed and starting to get rundown. But, to their credit, the store crew had a pretty decent reputation for good service of late and were situated in a prime Parker location...right behind the &lt;span class="style16"&gt;Super Target in the Parker &lt;/span&gt;Valley retail complex. &lt;/p&gt;         &lt;p class="linksbottom"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Douglas County and &lt;em&gt;Parker&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; are one of the premier areas to live in in Colorado, heck in the whole country for that matter. It’s a clean, beautiful growing city that still embraces the country charm that makes it such an awesome place to live and rear a family. &lt;/p&gt;         &lt;p class="linksbottom"&gt;Of the four brothers that makes up the Pride Auto Care ownership, two of us live near the store, one just “over the line” in Centennial and the other lives in Parker off Bayou Gulch Rd. WE are hands on owners. We work at the stores we operate and that makes a difference because it’s our friends, and neighbors, our extended “family” that have us work on their “pride and joy!” They trust us. They see us at school, at church, at grocery store, at the movies…these are our neighbors. We know they expect nothing but great, honest service and a fair price from us and that exactly what they’ve gotten for over 19 years now. We are now working on the second and third generation of drivers in many of the original families who’ve been our customer’s for almost 20 years. &lt;/p&gt;         &lt;p class="linksbottom"&gt;We love people and love fixin’ cars. &lt;span class="boldredtext"&gt;The new store in Parker is an exciting first for us &lt;/span&gt;as our original two stores were built new in 1989 when two of the four brothers were just manager and technician at the time. Then in 2001 we became minority owners in the operations and eventually bought the business outright in 2005. We’ve been looking to expand to a third store in the southeast corridor” since then and Parker is perfect. A great town with amazing people and a great country feel.

Simple… We love this area and wanted our next great car care location to be in our own backyards. WE were amazingly blessed to find the old Hometown store…it was just the right place for us.&lt;br /&gt;The original owner was “hands off”, tired of the car care business and has wanted out for some time now. While the old Hometown crew recently had a decent technician or two in the fold, the store was understaffed, un-marketed and starting to get rundown. But, to their credit, the store crew had a pretty decent reputation for good service of late and were&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt; situated in a prime Parker location...right behind the Super Target in the Parker Valley retail complex.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Douglas County and Parker are one of the premier areas to live in in Colorado, heck in the whole country for that matter. It’s a clean, beautiful growing city that still embraces the country charm that makes it such an awesome place to live and rear a family.&lt;br /&gt;Of the four brothers that makes up the Pride Auto Care ownership, two of us live near the store, one just “over the line” in Centennial and the other lives in Parker off Bayou Gulch Rd. WE are hands on owners. We work at the stores we operate and that makes a difference because it’s our friends, and neighbors, our extended “family” that have us work on their “pride and joy!” They trust us. They see us at school, at church, at grocery store, at the movies…these are our neighbors. We know they expect nothing but great, honest service and a fair price from us and that exactly what they’ve gotten for over 19 years now. We are now working on the second and third generation of drivers in many of the original families who’ve been our customer’s for almost 20 years.&lt;br /&gt;We love people and love fixin’ cars. &lt;strong&gt;The new store in Parker is an exciting first for us as our original two stores were built new in 1989 when two of the four brothers were just manager and technician at the time.&lt;/strong&gt; Then in 2001 we became minority owners in the operations and eventually bought the business outright in 2005. We’ve been looking to expand to a third store in the southeast corridor” since then and Parker is perfect. A great town with amazing people and a great country feel. What more could we ask for. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3600652096144586240-6184669749301821489?l=prideautocare.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://prideautocare.blogspot.com/2008/09/pride-auto-care-now-in-parker-colorado.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Chrissy in Parker CO)</author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3600652096144586240.post-2736829768315859137</guid><pubDate>Sat, 06 Sep 2008 15:53:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-09-06T09:53:36.759-06:00</atom:updated><title>Fun for the Kids!</title><description>Centennial Medical Plaza Hosts Trick-or-Treat for Health&lt;br /&gt;WHAT:            Trick or Treat For Health&lt;br /&gt;WHO:             Children of all ages and their families&lt;br /&gt;WHERE:            Centennial Medical Plaza, 14200 Arapahoe Rd.
