Who's The Best Car Mechanic in the Area?

This week's readers' poll is all about car mechanics. Who do you think is the best in the Tanner City?

 

This week's Best of Patch Readers' Choice is on car mechanics -- either you love 'em or you hate 'em.

We want to hear about the ones you love. Do you have a favorite mechanic in Peabody that you use? This week's survey will also include readers of neighboring Lynnfield Patch.

Below is a list of some of the shops in Peabody -- there are far too many to list them all here. If we're leaving your favorite off the list, however, please let us know in the comments and we'll add it:

Voting in the poll below is open until 9 a.m. Friday. Because this poll is not scientific, it is not the sole consideration in choosing a winner. The winner will be determined by the Patch editor, based on poll results and reviews on Patch Places. Please vote only once per survey.

Please see the attached .pdf file for the official rules.

Thanks, Diane. Is Charlie's Garage in Peabody or Salem though? I know of one in Salem, but not Peabody. If you are thinking of the Witch City one, then make sure to go vote in the best mechanic's poll on Salem Patch. Our poll here is just looking at Peabody.

You didn't even include FasTrack on Summit Street! They're my favorite by far. I was referred there by the Peabody Chamber of Commerce (thank you Deanne Healey!), and have since referred several people from City Hall. Please add them - thanks.

Sorry, will. You missed the boat on the poll this past week. Know one else had mentioned Spofford until now, but if you had let us know between Monday and Friday, we could have added Spofford to the list.

Good Morning John, Happy Sunday:) I have to agree with Will, Spofford Diagnostic is a great asset for Peabody. Spofford Automotive is the place we, at Larson's Service, http://www.larsonsservice.com highly recommend for vehicles and concerns not serviced at our shop! John Spofford is not only a talented technician and really great guy, he is very dedicated to other Peabody causes, including Firefighting and Animal Rescue. Spofford's definitely is one of Peabody's best, and deserves to be recognized!
Have a Fun Day! http://www.spoffordautomotive.com/#!technicians

Hi Matt, sorry we didn't get you guys in on the poll. The poll, as stated above in the article, however, closed Friday at 9 a.m. Each week when we do a Best of Patch Readers' Choice article, polling is open from Monday at 5 a.m. to Friday at 9 a.m. The winner is then announced Friday at noon. So, unfortunately, I can't do anything at this point, but I also notice that Gaeta's isn't listed in our business directory -- Patch Places. I will email you over some instructions on how to get it in there.
