Saying good morning on a Terrible Thursday. Guess what happens? The guys get me laughing at myself 

A Boss that walks around and is genuinely concerned about the well-being of his guys. These days that is a rare benefit.

When he confronted them about the bench looking filthy that made me smile. Cleanliness is next to Godliness… Good Job Dave

That bench lecture made me think I was in trouble too

"their engines always been mystery to me" - that is a nicest way to say that Jaguar engines are complete shait

My hat is off to you sir. We need more people like you to show the younger generation how to get ahead and help others along the way.

Worked at a ford dealer for 25 years, the boss use to come in and say hi and talk to the guys,then the dealer was sold to a corporation,and it sucked, your shop remind me of how things use to be. Good to see👍👍

If I were 20 years younger I would pack my tools and head to SLC and camp out in Daves parking lot until he hires me! This is the kind of employer I have always wanted to work for but for some reason never was able to make the connection. Now about that work bench...such a nice clean shop except for that spot. Every shop I have ever been in has had the problem of any horizontal empty space getting piled with junk.

Sniffing, feeling and listening . With humour .🙏

My heart goes out to to Dave, his crew and CUSTOMERS. I had to go to fleet service at a school district. Telling customers they need repairs that will exceed the value of their vehicles is not fun. Trust me. Ocassional you get to give good news but you feel pain for the folks just getting by and catastrophic failure visits their wallets. No fun.

I’m 75 years old and my dad was a part time mechanic and full time farmer. Small family farm for existence and some profit. He did a one man mechanic shop and worked on everything from lawn mowers to farm tractors. Brake , clutch replacement and full tare down over-halls from the 1950s through the 70s. No specialty tools and an electric impact gun. Everything was done sight and feel. His engines lasted well into the life of the cars and trucks and tractors. I used this knowledge to maintain my vehicles until when you raised the hood and could no longer see the ground below. I was the only one out of the 3 boys that could do this so I fixed their vehicles as well. My dads shop had a gravel floor and potbelly stove that was like heating a stable in an open barn. Good ole tuff times and lot of good memories.

I'd have thought you'd put up the closed sign when the jag showed up😊

Really great stuff!! Hoping the TV show works out, looking forward to it. Keep up the awesome work.

He has to have 2 million dollars of shop equipment alone! What an operation.

Your show is gonna do huge numbers on discovery channel. I hope it doesn’t stop you from doing videos on RU-vid.

This is how shop owners should operate, Dave we need more videos even if it's just you wrenching we will watch👍👍👍

I APPRECIATE this content. Day to day in a professional shop with no (obvious) drama is music to my ears!

TV series!!!! No commercials. Your followers will pay the add slots!!!

Dave, it’s so refreshing to see a nice clean shop that is being run professionally, orderly, top tier techs and integrity. I’ve run a German and Swedish shop for 34 years, surgically. Not many of us around these days. Sadly, the dealerships and a lot of independent shops have given mechanics a bad wrap. Looking forward to seeing you guys go live on TV. Congratulations. Cheers my friend.

Hey Dave ! You are pretty funny guy ! Choosing to be a mechanic is a tuff job ! Thanks for being A good human being sir . I do know it is difficult - Nearly 30 years about did me in !

Making sure your guys are happy, what a Man!!

Dave I have a ton of respect for you because of your modesty. It's refreshing to not see and arrogant jerk

A Clean and Organized shop is a safe shop.

I wish I had an owner that was involved as much as you are. I also like how you insist on keeping standards in place and aren’t afraid to say it…ie shop cleanliness. I’ve literally never talked to the owner of my dealership personally in the 4 years that I’ve worked there. I see him on TV more than in person. Our shop is big and has the potential to be so much better but management is just flat out piss poor. Good work Dave!

My Dad was like that about the shop organization and cleanliness, He was adamant, clean shop, focused and clean work.

So few shop owners invest in younger and upcoming talent like you do. Very well done, Dave!

Thats a big shop with what seems alot of excellent skilled Technicians.

This was the best video yet. Hope you guys do a show.

Great channel. Keep it going. Cheers. No drama just diagnostics and fixing.

Dave, if I had been growing up in your neck of the woods and not So. CA, I would have wanted to work for you after I got my AA at UTI. Love your work ethic, love the shop, love that your reputation is keeping you busy. I hope the filming doesn’t cause issues at the shop! Stay classy!

I love your methodology in diagnostics. Your shop is a technicians dream.

Lead by example , The character of a business owner that cares and strives to succeed Awsome Job Dave

I will pay to see your show Dave, great content & supervision throughout your shop, bonus points for correcting your team on the workbench issue sir

I have put your channel on my favourites list! What a workshop setup. I never worked in anything like that. You really get some variety.

That's crazy your shop works on just about everything. From a 6.0 Ford to a right hand drive mystery machine from another country to a diesel Jag that just about nobody has seen

Ohhh ive been here a few times. Sometimes it is what it is, what ive learnt its best if its someone elses program. Ive had a similar guy with a jeep that needed 11 grand worth of work. He wanted spark plugs and brake pads done. Brakes are metal to metal, the timing belt is a rotation over from snapping, and the whole car was a wreck. Had a 33 min conversation explaining everything. Basically I refused to do the job since I do not with to be married to the vehicle and it fail under my watch. 2 weeks later I saw the guy on the side of the road. You made the right choice dave.

In my Radio shop, I called it MWWA (Managing While Walking Around). I loathed sitting at my desk, unless it was to sign paychecks.

Hola 👋 señor Dave!!! That is a great environment to work everyday with a team of professionals and a great boss like you that keep a great environment that encourages workers to do their best for achieving quality work…it is very nice to see what is going on in the shop…if I was a mechanic I will be applying for a job in your shop or I can open a street taco 🌮 stand in a corner of your shop for your customers and your employees so they don’t have to rush outside at lunch time 😊

Nice shop. I don't blame you for pointing out that messy bench organization is key.

Jason, Glad to see that you are still there and prospering..You are a good man,, Jerry

a Boss with a great personality.... makes a big difference

This is great insight into the shop and the whole support structure.

Dave, Jesse needs a raise for the epic mustache. Love you too. I love watching these videos.

More Places of work need an awesome boss like you Dave. Your guys are the best. Keep those awesome videos coming.

I love these videos Dave is the MAN!

I’d be disabling each injector on that jag with the scan tool and seeing if the noise changes in anyway. See if you can isolate it to a particular hole. But a couple dead giveaways sound speeds up with rpm. Sound seems to be half the speed of the crankshaft. Definitely have pretty good direction right there. Im a fairly knowledgeable technician, might not hold a candle to the knowledge you possess. Great video guys !!!!

Great episode Dave!!! Lots of work, Lots of dedicated busy employees...

I appreciate your content Dave. A Big THANK YOU.

Great content!! Could watch this on tv for sure!!

Taking the time to walk the floor & get dirty says it all. Dealers stop caring the minute they hand you the keys & they staff their service depts accordingly.

Great leadership Dave!

Keep up the good work!God bless!

Love your content!! such a professional operation! thank you Dave

I need to see more of that beautiful datsun 240z you had back there on the lift please!!!

This is one of the best videos. Thanks for posting

You have an awesome crew and if I were a younger man now and still in the trade you would have been an awesome person to work for. Although I'm in Canada. Keep these awesome videos coming Dave

Great video.. very interesting how you diagnose a problem, great staff. The behind the scenes of what’s going on is priceless.

Great video Dave! Great content and entertainment. Keep up the good work and keep them videos rolling.

So excited that you guys might get picked up by Discovery! When I get an oil change I don't want to sit in the waiting room I want to be back in the shop drinking a cup of coffee and listening to what's going on. You give us that from our livingroom. Amazing!

Dr Dave making the morning rounds, just like my father in the hospital. funny corollary

That Jag....... people just hate their cars don't they. Oil change?? That shop isn't gonna screw me on "unnecessary" oil changes. LOL

Well bless your little heart!!!!
