It made for an interesting Friday. This customer picked up a hitchhiker at a work site that had stayed in their truck for over 2 days and lots of miles. They had called all over looking for help, including calling Fish and Game. We've seen plenty of rodents, rabbits and even frogs in vehicles. But a groundhog was definitely a first.

Rob and the team tried scaring this big guy out using bursts of air, but finally had to resort to a homemade catch pole. Mr. Groundhog was pi**ed to get caught but quickly and safely released.

If you're looking to donate your car to charity, look closer to home. Contact your favorite local charity directly and see if they work with a service locally.

The earworm jingle is no more, for now.

Yes, this is one of those web articles where you click through the pictures. But it's pretty accurate.

Keep your mechanic happy by not doing these things to your vehicle.

This was a blast in 2022. Highly recommend!!

- August 26 is the date for Cruise Night 2023 on Castro Valley Boulevard from 6-10 PM ! The idea is for folks to come downtown and enjoy an evening with friends and neighbors and spend some money with local merchants. Cruise Night is the same weekend as the Goodguys Rod & Custom Association Finals in Pleasanton and will attract hundreds of cars and thousands of spectators. There are no road closures for Cruise Night. Come cruise and SHOP LOCAL!

Event organizers : Castro Valley News CHP - Castro Valley TMC Productions / The Music Company HALO-Bebe-Duarte and our DJ David Alga
