Yukon, OK

This afternoon I was browsing on the Internet and read an article featured in today's NewsOK about my town of Yukon, Oklahoma.

There is no new 'discoveries' given in it but it is always nice to read good stuff about my community. For the last few years Yukon experienced a tramendous growth. And of course with it, it attracts more and more residents and business.

Just a few days ago I wrote 10 Top Reasons to Live in Yukon, OK in my blog.

Yukon is growing but it still has that feel of a small town, which is really appealing to lots of people. "Part of the city’s growth has come from the decades-long movement to the suburbs. But Yukon City Manager Jim Crosby said residents also appreciate the city’s "small-town atmosphere” and easy access to shopping and transportation in nearby Oklahoma City."

"Everything the factory doesn't do, we do" the owner of Auto F/X in Yukon, OK - Billy Wullfenstein says.

Auto F/X is going to celebrate its 10th anniversary this year. And after almost ten years is thriving and attracting more and more happy customers. Auto FX in Yukon is the leader in mobile audio and video systems in Oklahoma.

The store offers lots of specialized accessories and service with personal attention....and this is what we like!

I first met Billy about two months ago when I brought my 'RED FRED' (aka Ford F-150) to his store. I found my Red Fred locally at Joe Cooper Ford. It was red, comfortable and absolutely powerful. Being of a petite posture, however, I needed help with getting in to the Red Fred. So running boards were a must. Then I thought about merciless Oklahoma's sun ... so window tinting was next. The list didn't stop here ... hitch and bed cover were an absolute necessity.

I knew I was in the right place right after I passed the entry door. Attention, listening and questions were flowing...I felt like I came to see my friends who were going to find solutions to my problems...AND THEY DID! Everything was installed by the next day. Keys given back to me with a smile...and personal assurance that if anything would need adjustment or service they just need to hear from me. And how is that for a treatment of a stranger, eh? Great people, great service and one more very pleased customer!
