Kudos to a local who helped us in Key Largo while broke down
On the way to Curry Hammock SP, crossing the bridge into the Keys I had to lock up the brakes. All the sudden the truck was pulling to the left badly. I was able to get into Key Largo and stopped near the Napa Auto Parts. My brake caliper was smoking bad. At 3:30 pm on a Saturday, Napa guys were great, called around to several mobile mechanics and none wanted to work. A guy in the store asked me what was wrong and said he would check it out, he was very well known by the Napa guys so I figured what the heck. He saw the caliper was stuck and offered to help. In no time he had it off, Napa had the parts pulled and he put it all together, bled the brakes and we were good as gold. He charged me a hundred bucks, I paid and tipped him. He even offered to go to Curry Hammock if I had any trouble while vacationing. Anyway the guys name is Derek McKinley, owner of Fantastic Mobile Detail. He deserves kudos and if anyone needs help in Key Largo or RV detailing call him at 305-522-4960. He did us right and its good to know a resource while on the road. Kudos to the Napa store, did everything they could to help.
