I called Chad and LMM to complete an installation of 2 front struts, unfortunately for him the job turned into much more than that…
I had both lower mounting bolts on each strut completely seized, he was able to remove the bushings to get the seized bolts out. I was actually happy about removing the bushings as they were extremely old being the original bushings so we could replace those.
While he was in my wheel wells, we did an inspection of other components and he was nice enough to replace my tie rod ends while working on my struts (I went and bought new ones at autozone while the job was being done).
Again, the original job was to replace the struts, it ended up becoming a job where we also had to replace the lower control arm bushings and the tie rod ends and nonetheless Chad was happy to take care of business and service what needed to be done.
The work was good quality work and Chad took the time to assess the situation, to get the work done right. I would highly recommend paying for his time and service. For an example of Chad’s character, this man spent most of Memorial Weekend, as a Veteran, in my driveway working on my truck.
If you aren’t in an emergency situation and you need some intricate or difficult work completed and are willing to be patient, I recommend going with LMM. The prices are also unmatched, good luck finding someone in town willing to get that deep into a front end job for under $400.
All in all, after installation of 2 new struts, 2 lower control arm bushings, and 2 tie rod ends (with me supplying the parts) came out to $200 and a guitar as a barter. If you are in a financial pinch, they are also happy to barter services or product with you to complete service. This is exactly why I support small local business and will call LMM from now on!

I have a similar mobile mechanic business. I have gotten tons of calls from jobs from Lux that he didn’t do correctly and I’ve had to go back and repair. I don’t want to steal this guy’s business, but his works pretty shotty.

My jeep was in shambles. Thought I was gonna keep it parked forever but Chad came by and proceeded to explain to me. that the damage was actually very minimal compared to what I was being told by everyone who’s “been doing this there whole life” . Replaced a few wires threw a few things up front and my jeep is driving better then half these brand new cars! Absolutely incredible person. Broke himself up and down to make sure i was satisfied this man and his wife deserve 10 stars if I could do it. Honestly I have nothing else to say but. “Damn….” And “wow” 1000% these people deserve to be paid more for there services then what they charge.

Had them come out and change a spider injector. After paying them half the day before, no one showed up until 3. Had I not been home and texted them, I don't think they would have showed up. Took it to another mechanic for timing and they said there is a massive vaccume leak and it was caused by a bad install. Baught a gasket kit from autozone and ge took all the gaskets home and didn't install any he came across. Won't answer my call or texts. Left garbage under my hood. I would look elsewhere for a mobile mechanic nothing but stress from them. I'd rate 0 if I could. If you can't do the work just say that instead I have a worse off truck and mechanic won't touch it claims they don't want to be liable now I'm out $1200 for parts and $800 for install.

Chad is a great guy. I met him at the G district and he was buying himself a project. I'd driven up my own old beater F-150 to have it looked at a while later and he was quick to appraise the situation with it and tally a quote. No excess and no missing things. His wife is a queen and he is just a great family man running an honest business. He tried to give me my money back for the quote but he should have taken more since he had so much work cut out for he and the wife... God bless them both and the family. I now live closer to his shop and am thinking about a time to finish the work on my truck.

Worst experience I've had with a mechanic. Chronically late, left my truck worse off than before, and now won't show at all. Don't hire this guy.

Okay, so I read all the comments previous as I was looking around for an emergency mechanic. I had some expectations for time management and communication issues, but as a lot of comments also mention, I think Chad is worth the wait.
He takes a while because he is genuine and caring. Once he starts working on your car he will stick it out until it’s finished and goes above and beyond expectations with his work and even the little extra things he notices.
I think a lot of people are thinking this small business should run as efficiently as an actual shop, but you need to realize this company is family owned and run by Chad and his wife, and they essentially work it 24/7. This is not a corporation but a hardworking, honest small business that, as Chad put it, “started for the blue collar folks who just need to be able to get to work and not pay crazy fees.”
Prices were better than we were expecting, and even though Chad didn’t end up getting to us until after dark, they still charged us for the daytime price.
He completed our service and let us know about some other problems he found without trying to sell us repairs or parts or anything, just to let us know. Explained it all very well and even communicated some things that weren’t huge problems that any other mechanic would probably take advantage of and try to sell us on more labor or parts.
All in all, I would obviously love to have shop level communication and time management, sure, but I think it’s a more than acceptable trade for the great quality of work and quality of character in the worker. You can tell Chad lives for the job (he literally has a check engine light tattooed on his hand lol) and he’s a stand up guy.
Plus you really can’t beat same day, late hours repair work being available when you need it. Who else would come on a Sunday evening to make an hour+ of repairs? :)
We will definitely be working with them again.

Let me just say chad is a kind guy and determined but mind you. Where I come from if you break a part on a car you are entitled to pay for it. That being said snapped a piece off of my radiator had ME pay for it no BIG deal. But 95 for the fee and then buys the completely wrong part I was told when I called any and all purchases before being made would go through me. Everything under the hood is new and not only did he buy the wrong part he never put the existing part he broke back in. Now I have to special order all this again just to do it myself again! He's spend about 3 and a half hours working on it I will give him that but no progress was ever made and it never got fixed. Bill came out to $211 for nothing but a part i already had. And now I'm having to search all over and buy it all again. I won't ever use this company 0/10
