Retail customers aren't the only people who turn to Progressive when they need work done on their cars—high-ranking entities like law enforcement agencies and insurance companies rely on Progressive to keep their rides modernized, too. That's because Progressive has built a sparkling reputation since it opened in 1980, back when most cars rode atop disco balls instead of wheels. Today, at three locations sprinkled around San Diego, the company's certified technicians equip rides with the latest electronics, including video screens, rearview cameras, remote starts, and stereos from most of the industry's best brands. Progressive also keeps qualified tinters on its staff to install energy-saving films over car, boat, house, and office windows.
