Cherrydale Motors co-owners Wade Aylor and Bill Pacheco have seen just about everything during their decade in business—from busted brakes and tricky transmissions to escaped pet reptiles. “We pulled a snake out of a dash[board],” Aylor laughs. “It was probably 4 or 5 feet. A boa. A customer’s son had it in a box and it got out. That’s probably the oddest thing I’ve seen.”
Serpentine capers notwithstanding, the duo, whose shop on Lee Highway has become a go-to for the car-troubled, take pride in being Automotive Service Excellence (ASE)-certified technicians who offer full service and approach their customers with respect. “We try to treat people like we want to be treated,” Aylor says. “We want to do a good job and do it at a reasonable price.”
