Route 66 Auto Repair sits on Foothill Blvd in Upland, CA, the stretch of Historic Route 66 that runs between the I-10 to the south and the 210 to the north. Central Ave connects to both freeways, so you can drop off a car on the way to either commute. For drivers in the west end of the Inland Empire, that puts us close to the roads you already use.
Why does being between the freeways matter?
Car trouble tends to show up on the commute. A brake starts grinding in stop-and-go on the 10, the temperature climbs on the 210 grade, or a warning light comes on halfway to work. Sitting on Historic Route 66, with a Central Ave exit on both freeways, means a short surface-street drive rather than a long detour.
It also makes drop-off simpler. If you commute on the I-10 toward Los Angeles or Ontario, or on the 210 toward Pasadena or San Bernardino, the shop is on the way to either on-ramp.
What is Historic Route 66 doing in Upland?
Before the interstates, Route 66 ran across the country and ended near the Pacific. In Upland it follows Foothill Blvd. The freeways took the long-haul traffic, but Foothill Blvd still carries local drivers every day, and the Route 66 name stayed. Our shop is named for the road it sits on.
Who does the location work best for?
- Daily commuters who want to drop a car on the way to the freeway
- Drivers from Montclair, Claremont, Rancho Cucamonga and Ontario, a short drive on surface streets
- Movers picking up a U-Haul before getting on the I-10 or the 210
- Anyone heading up the Cajon Pass who wants the car checked first
How do I fit a repair around the commute?
Call ahead so we know when you will arrive, then drop the car at opening. If you arrive before 8 AM or after 5 PM, use the after-hours key drop. We text when the estimate is ready, so you can approve work from your desk. See directions for turn-by-turn help and booking for the full steps.
