We love our neighbors at Hanson's Performance and want to share a little pop-up that Jess is having. Perfect time for getting a new spring sweatshirt or riding gear :-)

We have the best neighbors! 🤝 Huge thanks to Sadie and the crew over Flathead Towing for the shout-out.

We love being part of this community and working alongside such a great local team. If they ever bring you to our neck of the woods on Highway 2, know that we’re right across the street and ready to help! 🛠️🚛

One of the best parts of being in Columbia Falls is having neighbors we can trust! 🤝

If you’re ever getting a tow to our yard and need a solid mechanic, Franko's Auto Repair is literally right across the street from us on Highway 2. Frank has over 25 years of experience in the valley and is the go-to for everything from routine maintenance on Subarus and Toyotas to full suspension upgrades. 🏔️🛠️

It’s great knowing our customers are in good hands just a stone's throw away. Check them out!

📍 Find them: 1/2 mile South of the Blue Moon.

🏔️ IS YOUR RIG FLATHEAD READY? 🏔️

We’ve been a little quiet on here lately because Frank has been buried under hoods—getting local rides like this one (check out that new front end! 🛠️) in tip-top shape.

We want to make sure YOU are ready for spring! Winter was tough on our Montana roads, and it was even tougher on your vehicle. We’re seeing three big things coming into the bay this week:

1️⃣ Loose Suspensions (those potholes are no joke!)
2️⃣ Weak A/C Systems (beat the summer rush now!)
3️⃣ Crunchy Brakes (leftover road salt is a killer)

Don't wait until you're stuck on the side of Highway 2. Let Frank get you squared away.

📍 Find us: 1/2 mile South of the Blue Moon, right here in Columbia Falls.

When the local shop dogs start giving out advice, we listen! 🐾🦴

Daisy and Pearl couldn’t agree more with Leroy over at Glacier Collision Worx, Inc.—spring in the Flathead means busy roads and a lot more to watch out for.

While Frank keeps your engine running smooth and your mechanicals in top shape, we want to make sure your exterior stays just as nice! We’d much rather see you driving safely past our shops than needing a tow, but if the spring roads do get the best of you, our friends at Glacier Collision are the ones to call.

Stay safe out there, neighbors! 🏔️🚙

Hey folks, Leroy here from Glacier Collision Worx! 🛠️

We love seeing you on the road, but we’d much rather see you driving past our shop than pulling into it! With the seasons changing, it’s the perfect time for a quick safety tune-up.

Here are a few "Leroy-approved" tips to keep your fenders (and yourselves) in one piece:

* Ditch the Distractions: That text can wait. Keep your eyes on the road and your hands on the wheel. 📱🚫
* Space is Your Friend: Give the car in front of you some breathing room. Tailgating is the fastest way to meet our frame machine! 📏
* Check Your Tread: Bald tires are no joke on slick Montana roads. If they’re looking smooth, it’s time for a change. 🛞
* Light it Up: Make sure all your blinkers and brake lights are working so the rest of us know your next move. 💡

We’re always here if you need us, but let’s try to keep those bumpers bruise-free this week. Stay safe out there! 🏔️🚗
