Chris and the Crew outback can fix just about everything.....except the phones!

That's right ladies and Gents, GPS like most of the greater Pembroke metropolitan region using Time Warner for phones, we too are experiencing technical difficulties.

We are open and still hard at it, just have no phones until the cable company gets 'em fixed!

Heavy Diesel customers can still reach out back through normal channels and we will let you know when we are back up and running in the telephone department!

Today was annual school bus day at GPS where State Police inspectors join in with our crew to give the vast majority of school buses in Washington County there annual State Police inspection.

We offer a sincere thank you to our State partners for the annual guidance and work performed. A great bunch of professionals who know the importance of the job they do.

Adding to that, we offer a tremendous tip of the cap to our own lead in Chris Cosman. For years he has helped lead this organization under its different names as a premier tech who shoulders an amazing responsibility. Chris is responsible for managing the maintenance and safety of literally dozens and dozens of school buses ranging from Jonesport to Danforth that come through our shop.

Everyone in the GPS family has always trusted Chris as the smartest guy in our building, but it was so reinforced today witnessing the amount of respect that the State Police team had for Chris’s knowledge and expertise, it was something to see.

Anyone that knows Chris knows two things, he is as good as they come and also as humble. He quietly has built a career and a reputation that GPS is lucky to be a part of.

He’ll be dismissive of this praise, as he is any praise, but that’s the type of guy that deserves it that most.

Thanks Chris, GPS, Rte 1 Parts and Service and even Hallowells owe you a debt of gratitude for all you have done!

After few weeks off, the GPS guy headed to back Eastport America for this week's Gardner Parts and Service "Small Business Salute" for the Eastport famous, Washington County Famous, World Famous Raye's Mustard!

The accolades, the awards, the TV shows, its hard to believe that the energy behind it all is right here in a generational family owned local small business.

Kevin and Karen Raye have not only continued the 125 year success and traditions of America's only remaining stone ground mustard mill, they have truly turned a condiment into a destination!

With a gift shop on the downtown Eastport waterfront that allows you to experience all things locally mustard and beyond, they are also in the process of turning their famous mustard mill tours into a true Mustard Museum destination. A museum that will celebrate both the mustard and the local industry that made them both famous!

So as the museum plans move along, find your way to the gift shop and experience one of their over 30+ mustards (yes you read that right 30 plus!).

Can't make it because your wheels on the fritz? Then stop by Gardner Parts and Service and we'll get you back on the road and don't worry, in the meantime you can check them out at www.Rayesmustard.com and have the mustard sent right to your door!

This weeks area business to business "GPS salute" goes out to a place I do believe we are all "a little sweet on", the world famous Polar Treat located on US Rte 1 in Perry America!

Known by many names, the Polar Treat, the A-Frame, the Dairy Joy, it is certainly known by all! And one thing is for certain, there is no truer sign to the end of a long winter than that open flag at the Polar Treat!

So after you swing by for your first (or second, or third, we don't judge) ice cream of the season to celebrate the end to long winter nights, stop by GPS and we will get your ride ready for the warm summer days to come!
