Your market is empty of competition if that is all that is there. Move now with your business before that changes. If 1 in 6 cars a year needs repair then that would give you 1500 each. Be the best and get and kick out the rest.

Well, the best way I know of is to set up an E-Z up awning somewhere and see what happens, if you can find a place to do that, it seems to let people know you are there anyway.
