If it’s that time, give us a call! We have room on the schedule and can help you get that task off your list this week.

Welcome to ✨ name that thingy ✨ We asked our social media manager to identify shop tools. Swipe to see how confidently wrong she was. 🤣

Ashleigh’s best guess: A towel rack for mechanics. Hang your rag here while you’re working on a car.

The boring truth: Slide hammer puller for bearings

Ashleigh’s best guess: This is Josh’s iPad that he uses to watch car movies. I’m assuming it has the 2006 cinematic masterpiece Cars downloaded on it.

The boring truth: Automotive scan tool to communicate with cars

Ashleigh’s best guess: I’m calling it ✨ fancy can opener ✨

The boring truth: Dutsch wire crimper for electrical builds and repairs

Ashleigh’s best guess: Gas station hot dog machine for your car

The boring truth: Power steering fluid cooler

Ashleigh’s best guess: A portable oil dispenser for giving small car parts a fun little drink 🤗

The boring truth: SHE WAS RIGHT!

Ashleigh’s best guess: It’s a thermometer to check if the car has a fever.

The boring truth: Voltmeter probe to test for voltage
