    Mechanic in Orange County

    I have a 7.3 L in a E350 van and I am looking for a good mechanic in central Orange County. I would prefer not to use a dealer's service department, but an independent guy. Any referals would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Do you have a white 05+ F250 with a donahoe leveling kit and a billet grill? Reason I ask is because I actually live in Coto myself and I see a truck like this all the time.

    For OP I don't know of any independent shops and if you don't find one you could always give the Ford Fleet Center in Rancho Santa Margarita a try. Thats were I take all of my stuff to get serviced or repaired. They'll work on anything from trucks to RV to trailers to Generators. They might even work on boats.

    Adam,

    That has to be me, I live in the Village. Mine is an 07 CC white 4x4, I have a Marine Corps Lis. plate frame & a personalized plate "CRAZYK9", sound off your train horns next time you see me.

    I already go to S.M. Ford, I feel like I'm being over charged there, I want to keep my options open.

    Tits. Are you going to the actuall dealer or are you going to Fleet on Banderas? The Fleet is a good place but the only problem is that they work on ambulances and police vehicles and the techs kinda have to drop whatever they are working on and go straight to working on those. The general service is good but warranty stuff takes a little time. BTW your truck is pretty sweet. And you might see me driving a tan F250 with a service bed.

    I highly recommend OC DIESELSHOP in Mission Viejo. They are true Master Technicians. Their customer service is outstanding as well. You won't be disappointed.
