Okay, full confession: I’d never set foot in a junkyard before, so I had no idea what to expect. But from the second we walked in, Jose made it easy. Dude was *so* nice—like, genuinely happy to help. We showed up right after school, clueless, and he didn’t make us feel stupid at all. He walked us through everything, pointed out where the scrap metal, tires, and spares were, and even joked around with us. The prices? Way better than I thought they’d be. And here’s the thing—we took forever picking stuff out, and by the time we were done, Jose was actually about to send someone to check on us. That’s how attentive they are. If I ever need parts again, this is the only place I’m going. 10/10, no notes. ---

The Joliet U-Pull-It junkyard is one of the cleaner ones I’ve been to—no cars piled up on bare rims like a junk heap. They actually keep most of the vehicles on racks with numbers, so you don’t waste time hunting for parts. That’s the good part. The bad part? The counter. I needed a spare tire, so I grabbed a full-size one and a spare from the lot. But when I went to pay, they hit me with extra fees I wasn’t expecting. If you’re looking for tires here, check the fine print—or just be ready to pay more than the sticker says. ---

First time bringing my car to a junkyard, and honestly, I was a little nervous. But the two ladies working—one at the register, one in the back (Ana, I think?)—were *so* nice. Made the whole process way less stressful. I was just trying to get rid of my car since repairs kept piling up, and they made it easy. The guys working there were cool too. Place was busy, but now I get why—everyone’s friendly, and it’s clear they know what they’re doing. ---

Went to Joliet U-Pull-It, and Jose was the guy who helped me. Dude’s solid—good at his job, knows his stuff, and doesn’t overcharge. If you’re dealing with them, ask for Jose. He’s the real deal. ---

Look, I *love* this junkyard—usually it’s a great spot. But here’s the kicker: I picked out a rim and tire for $18, and by the time I got to the counter, it was $85. When I asked why, the cashier was like, *“Oh yeah, there’s a $15 core charge for the rim.”* I said, *“Cool, but what’s the actual price of the tire without that?”* He just laughed and said, *“Why, you don’t even have the core with you.”* At that point, I was like, *“You know what? Never mind.”* False advertising, man. Do better.
