We love cars. We love the planet. How is that even possible?
Okay. We admit, Green Garage sounds a bit oxymoronic. After all, how can a garage be green? How can a place that services cars also service the environment? It seems, well, insane. But here's the thing. We need our cars. We love our cars. And they're not going away any time soon. So we need to find a way for all of us to live happily, harmoniously, planetarily ever after. And that's what we're all about.
But Green Garage can't save the world.
Let's be clear. We are not the be-all, end-all solution to a happier, healthier planet. Sorry. But we do believe we're a step in the right direction. Because driving good begins with helping to make thousands—and someday millions—of cars cleaner and greener. But it's more than that. It's a philosophy. A belief. Quite simply, it's acting like you're a considerate, responsible, conscientious member of planet Earth. Now, we freely admit ours isn't a complete solution. But we refuse to join the ranks of people that don't try because it might not be enough.
Have you hugged your car lately?
Say hello to your Carhugger. (Yes, our technicians are called Carhuggers—we love cars and we're not ashamed to admit it.) And when you're ready to have a stronger, more satisfying relationship with your car, our expert Carhuggers can show you how. The first thing they're gonna do is an Energy Intervention. They'll hook up your car to a diagnostic computer and figure out how you two drive together. Like how hard you brake, how fast you accelerate, how far you go. Stuff like that. Then they'll figure out how to help you get more in-sync. It's like marriage counseling for your car. Only we call it green-tuning.
So what is green-tuning? Pretty much the opposite of fast and furious.
Yes, green-tuning is a new term. Yes, we made it up. But it's a pretty good definition of what we do. Simply put, we take your car and tune it to get the most out of every drop or trickle of energy. Which makes it more gentle on the environment. More efficient on your wallet. And more enjoyable for you. And, sure, we have all the technology and equipment used in the movies and on TV to make cars faster and meaner. But green-tuners don't get their kicks smoking the tires and racing from stoplights. Instead, you might find yourself getting all worked up over comparing mileage with friends. Or getting into heated debates about who has the lowest carbon footprint. Before you know it, you'll be enjoying the white-knuckle excitement of driving good.
But I love going fast and hate the whole idea of doing good.
Man. We have days like that too. And you, my friend, are in luck. Because there is a dirty little secret to all this driving good and smileage. The very same things we do to your car to make it more efficient can have some rarely mentioned side effects. For starters, they save you money. Cash-ola. Smackers. Benjamins. Greenbacks. Ooops. Sorry. We didn't mean to bring up green again. But the point is, a little investment in your vehicle can save you a bunch of money down the road. And what's more, all these little goody-goody tweaks we make can actually add to your car's performance. And give it some serious horsepower. So doing a little good can make you more of a badass. Pretty cool.
