On 6/1/2026 Alison had this to say:
My car was stolen from my driveway and recovered in Elizabethtown (1.5hr away from home). I called McKinney’s after being recommended by the company that towed my car. The owners were so friendly and made it a point to get to me and get me situated so I could get home at a decent time. Very reasonably priced too! He even gave me two complimentary door keys too! HIGHLY recommend them to anyone in the area!
