THREE PINES MECHANICS

Three Pines Mechanics is an auto, RV and SXS repair business based in Ennis, Montana, at 23 Hot Springs Loop. You bring the RV to its shop, and its listing also offers "mobile solutions," so the work can come to you too. No mobile service area or trip fee is stated, so ask whether it will come to your campsite, storage lot or driveway.

It lists RVs, cars, trucks, snow machines and ATVs, diesel engines and equipment among the things it works on, and it has an "RV Repair and Maintenance" service. The pages name no RV types and no RV systems such as air conditioners, refrigerators or slide-outs, so ask whether it handles your problem before you book.

Its published prices are for car work. No RV price, hourly rate or trip fee is published, so ask for those when you call. Hours are Monday through Saturday, 9am to 7pm. It mentions service "for emergency situations," but does not say what after-hours work costs.

Jordon Ordiway is the named tech. He has more than 15 years in the industry across small shops and dealerships, and earlier worked as a mechanic for Union Pacific Railroad on heavy equipment. The business also claims "more than 15 years experience with autos, RVs, and equipment." No certifications, licensing, insurance or warranty are stated. Ask which RV certification applies, such as RVTI or NRVIA, since a named credential is easier to check than a claim of experience. Google rates the business 4.7 stars from 15 reviews.

This is a good fit for an owner in Ennis who wants a nearby mechanic for oil, tires, batteries or a breakdown, and who will ask for RV pricing and any trip fee before the rig is booked in.
