Turned out that the owner of the shop we took it to, my mom knew him..but no discount.boo!! lol - Christian Brothers Automotive...its a franchise, but man their shops are really nice.
Ended up replacing the starter, battery cable (it was frayed pretty bad at the end) and the oil pressure sending unit. GF paid 600 dollars but peace of mind we wouldnt be stuck in the middle of the desert..

They have a lot of those here in Houston. Mom always recommended the one by her work. Took my S-10 there in college for a cracked radiator, quoted me $800. I laughed and asked him if they were putting a gold one in. I bought the radiator, hoses, clamps and fluid for $90 and had it swapped out in 30 mins. I realize you have to pay your costs and make a profit, but 1000%.
