We were on our Yellow Stone trip when fuel filter change warning came on. We called GM dealership but they couldnt even commit to being able to do simple fix so then we called me around. Guess who said bring it on in right now? Well, they had part delivered and replaced filter in such a quick time my wife didnt mind hanging out at shop. I enjoyed it, its like the barber shop for me. The chickens and horses added ambiance. :). The bottom line is truck repaired at lower cost than dealership and allowed us to get back to our trip. Thanks guys.Happy campers

About a week ago, while on a long road trip, our Honda Odyssey needed a new exhaust hose (or something like that) because ours had a couple of holes in it and it was causing our engine to misfire. Charles took care of us on the same day that we dropped off the vehicle. He saved our trip! He stayed late to install the new hose, and he charged us a very reasonable price. His dog greeted us in the waiting room - a nice and quiet dog with a gentle personality. We highly recommend this business to anyone who needs it. Charles is an honest man, an excellent mechanic, and he won’t try to rip you off.

Changed the front brakes and rotors for a readable price. I would have paid more considering they got us back on the road in a couple hours. Great job!*Update - Made it the through the rest of the trip and all the way back home without a a single problem. Thanks again!

Traveling and stopped in Cody for a few days. Contacted them about brake work for my truck. They had me drop my truck off that day and had me an estimate that afternoon. Parts were ordered and they completed the job by noon the next day. Great service.

I had drove into Cody and realized my brakes were not in a condition to get me back home. I called and they got me in that day. Brakes and Rotors. It was completed by 1:00 that same day and the price was amazingly reasonable. I was so thankful because after Cody I had a 1,200 mile trip home too. I felt safe the whole way. Thank you for your kindness, quickness, and importance for me and my family’s safety. Highly recommend them.

Recently went to Technical Cowboy Automotive to have service performed on our Subaru Outback. Specifically, we needed to have the differential and transmission fluids drained and replaced. Pleased to report that the work was performed in a professional and timely manner. And at a fair price to boot. This was our first experience doing business with TCA, and it was a very positive one. Will be bringing our vehicles to TCA in the future when they require service. Highly recommended.

The day we were leaving town the car wouldnt start! We started calling everyone in the phone book from A on down. Took us all the way to T for Technical Cowboy before we had anyone say they would even look at the car this week!Charles was awesome. He said he would diagnose the problem as soon as he could work it in...(first thing the next morning) We needed a new starter (which he had in stock!) And we were on the road one day later!Such a life saver! We had a great experience, and we are so thankful Charles worked us into his busy schedule to get us on the road quickly.

Unfortunately this business is up for sale. Brett at tech cowboy has been good for me all the years I have been going here. I am sorry to possibly see this business go away or be under new ownership in the future as the customer service here was no less than 5 star for me

Had my car break down in cody and brought it to technical cowboy. They saw me first thing in the morning and had the problem figured out before they were even supposed to open. After a couple hours they told me they would need to wait for parts which is understandable. And then an hour later i got another call saying they figured out a loose wire caused the problem. I am grateful for their honesty turning a $400 repair to a $15 repair. Thank you

This place outperformed my expectations when I had a major electrical issue and had to get towed in. They even stayed late to fix my truck to get me back on the road. If you are having any car issues in the greater Cody area this is the place to go!

Fantastic job! Really helped us after the last repair shop missed a lot of stuff. My only complaint is his workers have a bit of an attitude depending on who youre but the owner made up for it! Thanks for helping us save money on our honeymoon and God bless! Definitely recommend this shop to anyone in the area!!!

Review №15

Charles and his team at Technical Cowboy Automotive were great! We had recently moved to the area and the nearest Mercedes dealership to get our vehicle serviced is 90 miles away, which is not exactly ideal. We researched and asked around in town of where we should go for quality servicing - and all things pointed to Technical Cowboy. They did not disappoint! They are thorough, informative and quick! You have to acknowledge their busy-ness when you first drive in, and just know that it is in direct correlation with the type of service they provide and the loyalty and trust that customers have in Technical Cowboy. 5 STARS!

Review №17

My husband and I were staying for a week in Cody and twice previously had a Hot Oil warning light come on while climbing at elevation indicating that our transmission oil was overheating. Charles was great. He got us in on short notice and spent 45min diagnosing the problem then sent us away to the local auto parts store for an infrared heat sensing gun and told us how to check to see if the oil was truly to hot, or if it was just a bad sensor. And he wouldnt take payment for his time. We would definitely recommend Charles as a knowledgeable, honest man.

I went in to get my lug nuts retorqued. I called first and he told me to call again before I bring it in. I did and he was ready when I got there. His employee did the work and did it well. I went to pay and rhe owner said, I got this. What a great surprise. This place is awesome. Thanks, from Rick in Wisconsin.

This business absolutely deserves its outstanding rating. The owner in person filled me in on a Monday morning and checked my brakes out. Even took it out for a test drive and released me with assurance that all is fine before continuing my three month trip to the western US. Didn’t even ask me for serious money but rather for a tip. Unbelievable honest and straight forward. It feels good to deal with people who are displaying good old fashioned values and believes. Thank you so much.

Came into Cody for a fishing trip to yellowstone. While fishing my check engine light cane on. I had a bad EGR valve. They got me in and taken care of and my truck is running great. No complaints at all. Im very appreciative of them getting me in and out so fast. I would use them again in a heartbeat.

It is so good to have a company that cares. These guys are some of the greatest mechanics I’ve met. Someone said it’s good to know there is still loyal people and I can 100% confirm that. My dad is a mechanic and every time I go to a place they try to scam me with things that don’t need done. Charles and the guys have it to me straight and helped me get back on the road so fast!

Review №35

This place was great!!! We were traveling from out of state and needed breaks he got me in that day and within a couple hours I was back on the road great pricing... only reason for 3 out 5 stars is because Ive been bombarded by phone calls, text messages and emails to rate or leave feedback very annoying........( Not from the owner personally but by whatever company he has employed to manage his online account)

Review №36

Much as I dont like spending money on car repairs, these guys always make me feel better about the experience with their fast turnaround and friendly attitudes. The repair costs seem generally reasonable and Ive never had any problems with work theyve done for me -- rotors, wheel bearing replacement, spark plug replacements and a few others.

I’ve taken my Honda Element to many places, and although I may get an oil change or two at other shops, when it comes to auto repairs, I now won’t go anywhere else. Another shop in town lied to me about a scheduled appointment, hadn’t ordered the parts, misdiagnosed the problem, and charged me almost $300 for solving the wrong problem I headed over to This auto shop and they took care of the problem. I’ll never go anywhere else. They’re professional, courteous, and quick. They’re the best!

This place was fabulous. I am very picky about my Toyota FJ Cruiser and I even consulted with an FJ forum on-line about what could be wrong and how to find a mechanic that was technically sound and trustworthy. WelI, I was pointed in the direction of the Technical Cowboy and I’m glad I was. His diagnosis was accurate and the needed repair was quickly accomplished - what a relief! I’ll be coming back if/when the need arises. I highly recommend him.

I went here monthly for 6 months for the calibration of my interlock. They were fast, got the job done. Except never had a chance to check my car for anything else and I asked on multiple occasions - “We don’t have time.” The last month, it was the week I was driving back to West Virginia when I called to see if they can check my car just to make sure it’s ready for a long drive plus the calibration. They said, yes as long as it’s before 3. I got there at 1pm, but they didn’t have time. Needless to say, I had no other time to get my car checked. I wish they said no so I could make arrangements.

Review №88

Stopped to have my differential oil checked, (this would take less than five minutes) right off the bat I sense the guy was not going to be helpful as he just sat there and Ignored me for some time. I was there at 7:30 in the morning when they opened. I was traveling and needed it done right away. He told me that he can do it around 2 o’clock. So I left. Before I got in my jeep I thought well, if I just had a wrench I could check it myself. I went back and asked for a wrench and he refused. Saying the owner would not allow it. These people are so unhelpful! I realized he was an A$$h0le and I expressed this to him and left. This is a far cry from the service we received at the Lander Wyoming NAPA store. We need to replace the control alarm on one of our jeeps, and not only did they lend us the tools, and provided penetrating fluid and anything else we needed. The owner of the NAPA store came and pulled off the control arm him self. Also we needed a nut with a flange, to install the new control arm. He called a friend to come and weld one on the nut. All at no charge. People in Lander are the people I remember Wyoming used to be! Business people in Cody basically suck! Your Response is exactly what I would expect from your business! Go take care of it yourself, buy the tool yourself,do the job yourself,don’t come here!
