An autobody shop on the north side of town is sharing a little piece of Tucson all over the world, and it’s all for a good cause. They’re hoping you’ll get involved on your next vacation.
Bucks Automotive might just have the cutest mascot around. He’s a 2-year-old Yorkshire terrier named Buck.
His owners, Mike and Rene Nicholson also own Bucks Automotive. Ever since they bought the shop six years ago, they give veterans free oil changes and tire rotations in November, they hold collection drives for school supplies and toys. And sometimes they’ll even trade food donations for discounts.
But they say it was their first few days as the owners of the shop, that solidified them wanting to support PACC.
“When we purchased Buck’s, we ended up with Covid,” Rene Nicholson explained. “So we just had our dogs from PACC that we could love and hold on to, because nobody else was around! And we made a list of all the things that we wanted to do in our community, and PACC was definitely one of them.”
