He asked when not why. They had a unique taste in a lot of their food. I will miss them. Maybe I’ll still get to taste their food when I pass by their Staten Island location.

Though they will try to convince you that you NEED a new transmission once you're in the shop.
I've never experienced that, nor heard of anyone that did.

To clarify : was referring to STS not retired.
Retired is very honest, more then once he advised me that I do not need service after other places advised me I needed tires brakes etc

MODS pls remove my previous post.

And for the record, STS doesn’t sell transmissions or do any mechanics work. So that would be another good reason to remove your post.
