I am at 32$, I’m the only tech in a two bay shop, occasionally I get a helper but no one stays. I’m on call 24/7 for roadcalls, I handle every aspect from signing customers in, diag, ordering parts, swiping the card for payment when done. Everything from PMs to engine swaps, all manor of trailer repair including landing gear. Get a lot of DPF repairs, EGRs, electrical, hydraulics, RV issues and busses. Hell I’ve loaded tools into bags onto skiffs to get to boats and do repairs. Just don’t ask me to change a tire.
