Getting to Express Auto from San Francisco
The San Francisco neighborhoods closest to us are on the south side of the city: the Excelsior, Visitacion Valley, Bayview, Ingleside, Parkside and the area around Stonestown and SF State.
City driving is stop-and-go on steep grades, which is hard on Tesla suspension bushings and tires. South-side San Francisco owners bring Model 3 and Model Y suspension, 12V and tire work down 101.
City shop rates follow City rents. San Francisco drivers who head south on 101 or 280 get dealer-quality work at independent rates, and BART runs from Balboa Park and Glen Park to San Bruno.
From central San Francisco: about 12 miles, about 19 minutes without traffic via Highway 101 and San Mateo Avenue.
