Archer to the
yellow building.

Archer is about 10.6 miles from the shop, which is roughly 14 minutes door to door, almost all of it on US 27 / US 41. Close enough to drop a vehicle off and pick it back up without losing the whole day to the drive.

Archer is the easiest drive of any town on this list: 10.6 miles on one road, no turns. It began in 1859 as a shipping point on David Levy Yulee's Florida Railroad and is named for James T. Archer, Florida's first Secretary of State. The pre-1900 depot still stands as the Archer Historical Society Depot Museum.

Why people drive it

Fifteen things are painted on the front of this building and all of them happen inside it. A truck that comes in for brakes can leave with the lift and the wheels done on the same visit, and the parts and audio counter is in the same room as the bays, so nothing gets sent across town for the next part. For anyone coming from Archer, that is usually what decides it.
