The Importance of Being Part of Our Local Community

Alternative Automotive • October 16, 2024

At Alternative Automotive, being an active part of the Troy and Winfield, Missouri community is at the heart of what we do.

From providing top-notch vehicle care to supporting local events, we believe in giving back to the community that supports us. One way we do this is through our annual Car Giveaway, where we proudly gift a car to a deserving local resident. This year, we’re excited to run this event again around Thanksgiving, and we can’t wait to make someone’s holiday season extra special!

We’re also always open to hearing about local events or causes where we can lend a hand. Whether it's through sponsorship or participation, we love getting involved in making our community better.

Join us in staying connected to the community, and experience the personal care that makes Alternative Automotive more than just a service shop.
