While Cody’s father initially pursued a different path, he eventually found his way back to the trade. In 1985, he built a modest two-bay repair shop in his own backyard — a small operation driven by skill, grit, and a passion for doing quality work. By 1991, demand outgrew the space, and the business moved into a four-bay facility that became the family’s primary shop for nearly three decades.
Cody stepped into a leadership role in 2011, taking over day-to-day management and beginning the process of modernizing operations. In 2018, he purchased the business outright, leading a team of four technicians and one service advisor. Recognizing the need for greater capacity and improved workflow, he relocated the shop in 2020 to a larger six-bay facility — a move that unlocked new growth and set the stage for future expansion.
The next major milestone came in 2024, when Gary’s Automotive underwent a significant expansion, taking over the adjoining unit to create a 12-bay facility. This upgrade marked the beginning of its rebrand and transformation into SuperTech Auto Repair — a transition that is now nearly complete.
