Know Your Numbers
Colton and its neighboring cities—Grand Terrace, San Bernardino, Rialto, Fontana, Redlands, Loma Linda and Bloomington—are home to more than 500,000 people combined. Even if only one percent of our neighbors need weekend service, that’s over 5,000 potential customers. We only need around 200 customers per year to achieve our goals, which means there’s plenty of opportunity to serve you without rushing or compromising quality.
With dozens of reputable auto shops operating Monday through Friday, many customers find themselves scrambling to fit repairs into a busy workweek. By operating exclusively on weekends, we fill a critical gap—making car care accessible when most other shops are closed.
Our flat-rate pricing model is designed to save you money. Here’s how a few of our services compare to typical dealership price ranges. Numbers are estimates and may vary by make and model.
| Service | Typical Dealer Range | Our Flat Rate | Estimated Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oil Change (Synthetic) | $100–150 | $80 | 20–47% |
| Spark Plugs – 4 Cyl | $267–386 | $140 | 47–64% |
| Brake Pads + Rotors (per axle) | $400–600 | $300 | 25–50% |
| A/C Recharge (R134a) | $180–250 | $150 | 17–40% |
These savings come from our lean business model and weekend-only operation, which allow us to keep overhead low. We pass those savings directly to you.
We focus on services that can be completed quickly without sacrificing quality. Knowing how long a job should take helps you plan your day and ensures transparency. Here are approximate labor times for common jobs:
Understanding labor times helps you gauge why we focus on jobs that fit comfortably within a two-hour window. If your vehicle needs more extensive repairs, we’re happy to refer you to a trusted partner shop that operates during the week.
