Question Anyone here live in or near the Dallas area, Or had any business realations...

.....relations with the boneyard "Pick-n-pull"? Any of the 3 in the Dallas area or across the nation? Looking at getting some parts there this weekend because they have what I need at a price I can afford that no one else really does. They're way cheaper and have a much larger selection than any of the yards here which sucks. Gimme your honest opinions.
Thanks.

If it's the chain pick n pull, they will nickel and dime you to death. Most have a gate fee, have tools to rent (for a cost), and charge a lot for their parts.
Also most check your toolbox on the way out, so if there is anything in there that looks like it may have come the yard, expect to pay for it.

Well they have a few cabs there and only want $130 where the yard here wants $230 and it has rocker panel damage. Dallas is a 4 hour drive for me. Not sure what to do on this.
