| You know the guys at Advance?
Alex and Curtis are opening up their own shop today. Glad to know there are two really trustworthy guys to work on our cars again! 
I just drove by the old Advance location and it's called J-Line Tires now. www.thespeedsyndicate.com

hmm i think one of the guys who worked at advance works or was working at the ford dealership in maple ridge
my cousin got a ride home when he brought his car in; said the guy driving him was telling him about how he worked at a great shop with great people and one day the boss came in and fired everyone and decided to do something totally different and sell tires
story sure sounds like it
