Tom and his wife (the owners) are good, honest people who are fair, and they do good work.
Price wise, I wouldn't say they're the cheapest, but they dang sure ain't the most expensive either. Just make sure you communicate your needs and budgetary limits up front to avoid any possible misunderstandings.
There's a MUCH longer to story to tell here, but I'll save you and my fingers the time and skip to the bottom line: RDS is an honest shop and where we'll be taking our vehicles for the foreseeable future.

After reading the reviews, prior to mine, it gives unsolicited validation on how I feel about RDS Automotive Inc.
I ran into an unexpected issue where my truck didn't start and after a jump and turning it off, it would not start back up. I made the assumption that it was the alternator, since my battery was less than a year old.
I spoke with Tom, to prepare my mind for the unexpected financial damage this repair was going to cost. He estimated in the $400-500 range. They proceed to order the alternator and had it delivered. Somewhere in starting the process of replacing the alternator, Tom discovered

Tom, the owner, knows his stuff. He and his team was willing to do a same day pre-purchase inspection on a private sale vehicle I was looking to purchase in the neighborhood. The inspection itself was very thorough and fairly priced.
After purchase of the vehicle I went to them for some tuneup items, and they were able to fit me in by working past business hours to adjust to my rushed schedule.
If you're in the area, I give a full recommendation!

Great service. Honest and trustworthy mechanic. I went in for an issue and my own solution. Tom and team were able to determine the real problems and get them resolved. My truck is now running better than it has in years. But outside that, they are true, experienced mechanics with a breadth of knowledge of vehicles that I have not found anywhere else. RDS reminds me of my grandfathers shop and I will be going back from now on. Thanks
