Not only did he do the work himself, he came in on a Saturday to do it because I wasn't able to get up there on a weekday!

This guy and Stevo battling out for awesome guy bragging rights. Steve came up on a Saturday, out of his way heading to a wedding, and got me back up and running. I've met Matt once before and he made a good impression on me too :dblthumb:

Good luck if you move to AL or another big diesel shop.

Steveo stayed at his shop with me one night till around 2AM on a weekday, if I remember right, to help get my truck back on the road so I could get back to North Alabama the next morning. Both good people!

Genius idea....SteveO and Matt pair up to have the ultimate mechanic shop. Top notch diesel service and traditional mechanic/offroad service. SteveO can start settin' up for that big retirement then

I personally think a good shop does better in a slightly smaller town. The secret is rednecks with rich parents :****:

Auburn has one "bolt on lift/truck accessory" place down here and they are rolling in hundreds from all the spoiled kids around town.

You nailed it! Almost every high school boy in my town drives a hopped up diesel pickup. I was expecting a visit from DCS because I built my son a truck with a Hemi.

Re:

Matt .. thanks for all your help you have given me... I'll definitely be in contact with all my needs and I have spread the word to a bunch of AZ guys doing upgrades

Sooo I ended up getting told to just go home today that he did not want "competition working there... So I am now unemployed but AM getting my 1weeks vacation. I ended up getting a crazy amount of offers and me and the wife are going over things. So far the future is looking better, and I'll be back to the trail very soon!! (Which is my overall goal every week!)

Just to give everyone a heads up, I am working for a vendor of ours that makes his own turbo mount kits and fuel systems for the Ford trucks. I have been working on his website the last few days getting stuff in order and adding products. If there is anything you need feel free to ask! You can email me [email protected] and I will get back to you! We offer mainly ford stuff but I am going to be adding Cummins and Duramax to the site. Let me know if I can help!

Web site here: http://www.iratediesel.com/store/buy-online/

This move is allowing me to stay at home and will hopefully pay off! I have been selling this stuff for years so any questions, just ask!
