## The honest read

Gary Powers & Sons Truck & Oil is an oil and heating company, and a 2026 Google reviewer who had never used it before said they needed an emergency oil delivery and the company responded fast, delivered without hesitation and would not accept a tip. That customer wrote that they were crying on the phone for unrelated reasons and that the people they dealt with were kind.

A 2025 customer who called Ryan about an issue with their heating system said he handed over the problem part before the customer even knew he was done. In a 2022 review, a customer whose two AC units broke said Ryan diagnosed the issues in a short time, had a replacement part for one unit and ordered the part for the other. That 2022 customer said Ryan kept them aware of the part delivery and came back promptly when it arrived. A 2024 customer with American Home Shield coverage said the company did many follow-up appointments to make sure they had heat and hot water while they fought with the warranty company.

Massachusetts HVAC license 6672-SM-M1, in Gary V Powers's name, is active on the state registry. Its BBB page shows an A+ grade.

A 2022 Google reviewer said the company misdiagnosed the issue, "bombed us out of the warranty" and never called back about a status or fix. A 2022 Google reviewer complained of a "rude office person and owner." A 2025 reviewer wrote, "Stay away from these guys."

**Strengths:**
- An emergency oil delivery — a 2026 customer said they responded fast and refused a tip
- A heating repair — a 2025 customer said Ryan handed over the problem part
- An AC repair — a 2022 customer said Ryan diagnosed two units in a short time
- Follow-up visits — a 2024 customer said they made sure of heat and hot water

**Concerns:**
- A misdiagnosis — a 2022 customer said the issue was misdiagnosed
- No callback — a 2022 customer said no one called back about a fix
- A lost warranty — a 2022 customer said they were bombed out of the warranty
- A rude office person — a 2022 reviewer complained of rudeness
- A blunt warning — a 2025 reviewer wrote "Stay away from these guys"
