    Google maps. Center on your location. Put 'truck repair' in the search box. Now you can see what's closest to you.

    The other nice thing about google maps is you also have instant access to hours, reviews, web site link, and directions/distance, then you can also easily search for other nearby amenities such as hotels, bars, and restaurants.

    My Rand McNally GPS shows truck repair locations close to me, and I just tap one then look it up on Google to see how the reviews are.

    Find truck service app is good. Meet them at the Dallas truck show. I even found places in my own city I didn’t know about through the app.
