So I was driving from Dallas to Russellville Arkansas yesterday and miscalculated how much gas I had and was stranded on the highway basically in the middle of nowhere and after calling around and just getting a bunch of people hanging up on me, I reached out to drakes tire shop And explained my situation and without hesitation Drake asked me to send my location and showed up within 20 minutes with a gas can and got me back on my way. I asked him to follow me to the closest gas station so I could properly compensate him, And I tried to show my appreciation with a payment I thought was fair. He declined the extra money, and all he let me give him was $10 for the gas. I’ve met a lot of people in my life I have to say the way this man lives his life and treats People really gives me hope for humanity, and even though I live in Dallas, I will be buying my tires from him and anyone that is thinking about doing business Here would be truly...
Read moreI didn't do any business with Drake, but I want to share the experience I had with him. I was in Warner working and got my truck stuck in a field down the road from Drake's shop. I walked to his shop hoping to get the number for a wrecker service to come pull me out. Without hesitation, Drake and his guys loaded up in their trucks and went pulled me out. I offered to pay him for his time and trouble, but he wouldn't take my money. He said he would have hated to see my have to pay a wrecker bill. In short, he took time out of his day to help a total stranger out of a jam and didn't want any compensation for doing it. That's the kind of man I would do business with in a heartbeat. I travel all over in my truck for work, and you can bet if I'm anywhere in eastern Oklahoma when it's time for new tires, I'll drive to Warner and buy them from Drake's Tire Shop. Thanks...

This past weekend I was on my way to drop my daughter off at college. I stopped to gas up the car and the gas kept spitting back out at me. I was very low on gas and didn’t know what I was going to do. A younger guy in the gas station told me to go to Drake’s.
Drake looked at my car right away and did something with the valve underneath. Then told me I was go to go and should be able to fill the tank now. He was right! I made it to my destination safely, thanks to him. And he didn’t even want to charge me! I made him take a little something but he didn’t want to.
I will never forget this man. One of the few good people...
