When it comes to having work done on your vehicle, you always want to make the right choice. Outside of marriage, kids and and retirement; choosing the best mechanic shop can be one of your toughest choices. And, if you're a surfer; you certainly want to support your local community. If you live and surf in San Diego, your choice is simple... Boulevard Automotive located at 737 Turquoise St. in Pacific Beach. (858) 488-7573.

Meet Robert Feliciano from Boulevard Automotive, in Pacific Beach.

Robert has been surfing for over 22 years and is one of Boulevard Automotive's valued mechanics. I have personally been taking my vehicles to Boulevard Automotive for over 10 years and Robert is a perfect example of the service that is offered by this shop. Their prices are awesomely low!!! The service is exceptionally fast!!! And, if you don't need the work done, Boulevard will not do it!!!

If you've been down to Tourmaline Surf Park, you've probably seen Robert ou ton a wave pulling off one of his flawless headstands. If you haven't seen his daredevil tricks, you've probably seen his 1957 Chevrolet cruisin' around town. This is a beauty of a car that gets the same attention that everyone of his customers receives.

Robert is one of the nicest guys you will meet down at the beach and certainly one of the best mechanics you could have work on your car. He is a general mechanic. So, if it's broken, Robert can fix it for you. Stop on by Boulevard Automotive and see how Robert can help to keep your ride rollin'.

The biggest difference you will experience at Boulevard, that you won't experience at most other mechanic shops, is the service you receive. Boulevard Automotive is hands down the best auto service shop you can find in San Diego. Even if the guys at Boulevard can't help you, they'll definitely point you in the right direction.
