I prayed for this to happen that someone got you a full time job For years I have been worried about you man. Happy tears. Mike and everyone love you very much. And are super proud of you and thanks for all the adventures and support and bear hugs If you see Connor thank him for looking after you. For me it means everything. Love you Zack your the goat. Andy stay photogenic
Dude who the heck makes a comment like this? Your getting to close into other peoples life and problems. “For me it means eveything” like what stay away from youtube man and go talk to someone for some help because it seems like you know everyone on youtube and make weird comments to everyone
Love to see you finally a bit more stress free and able to enjoy what you do man. Well deserved. I think you and the shop owner make a great team and both do some amazing high quality work.
Congrats man! I've been a self employed contractor for the last 15 years and it's a lot of stress. At 50 years old I just want to work, come home and play with cars in the garage. We met at Cecil years back. I think you made a good decision for you👍💪
I did the same thing after 15 years of having my own business. The stress of the building lease, insurances, payroll and vehicles along with a run of professional non-paying customers.... I decided to lock the doors, take a significant pay cut but lower stress and have a consistent weekly paycheck instead of the highs and lows of cash flow having my own business. Great decision overall, but now after 6 years of working for a large company, I'm getting the itch again to go back out on my own, but on a much smaller scale.
I was in the same situation. 15 years & packed up and took a big pay cut. Now I’m not as stressed & 16 years later I am comfortable and have benefits & a pension coming.
@palmbeachcane9523 Yeah, every time the itch hits to go back out on my own I start thinking about the inexpensive benefits & retirement and go nah.......... I'll just stay.
I was going to start my own business this year, but after seeing this video and reading the comments I think I’m just fine where I am. There’s good months and bad months and I totally forgot about this. I’d rather let the company take the fall instead of me
@@rubenfuentes989 Don’t be discouraged from starting your own business. It was the best thing that happened to me. If you’re young and have the ambition do it. I have been a heavy duty mechanic for over 40 years and was a mobile mechanic. But I worked outside everyday in the South Florida sun & rain. It took me years to make $1000 a day but some customers were good and some were bad. It is a 24/7 job and I did have a helper on Sat. Just be honest and charge a fair price and word travels fast and remember you’re only 1 person. Start part time & see how it goes. Good luck 👍
I definitely understand the strugles. I own a trucking company and i this economy it is very difficult at times to make it all work. Happy for you to find what you needed and look foward to see more of your videos again.
🎉 congratulations you deserve it!!!! God bless and again thank you to you and Zak for your service!!!!! A real DAD put his kids first and now your kids are here for you on your next chapter of life!!!!
Sorry to hear the shop is closed. I couldnt imagine going back to working for someone after starting my own business. That being said there has been a lot more time and stress involved in running my own shop. It seems like you found a good place where you fit in and will get to do more of what you enjoy. We hope to offer tuning in the future when we are equipped and experienced to do so but maybe in the meantime we will send some of that work your way!
I use to watch tons of videos of Andy and Zach, loved the channel especially since I live in PA too not too far from them , and it was nice to see videos home grown in my back yard.Glad to see Andy starting a new adventure and landing on solid ground, the smiles ear to ear tell me he made the right choice.
Super happy for you man. Def will be following you closely. Haven’t really watched a lot of mikes content since you guys stopped making videos together. Mostly don’t like the direction he went but I’m rooting for you brother.
Man, nice to see you upload. Have certainly missed it. I hate to hear that about your shop. You have done an awesome job with what you have done together with your son. Let’s see what’s next! Edit: What’s next looks awesome!
You need this structure running the business was more than you probably ever wanted to take on but did out of necessity. You have skills and you can definitely make this happen.
Hell yeah, I haven’t watched your videos in awhile due to life, but its awsome your able to do what you love and I understand the stress about owning a shop cause I am a single employee at my shop and the flex in the work we get in gets tuff sometimes
@@BenButler50 you dont get what im saying. Is dfr the bussiness gone? Yeah. But what about the dfr channel? If he keeps going on here, then its technically still alive, just not the same.
I feel like you knew i was looking for you and was wondering if you started another channel happy to see your happiness is taking president andy you are the man
Been a follower since the BS with streetspeed717, I'll always be a follower of yours Andy, I hope all continues to go well for you and I'm excited to see future content.
DiabloFormula Racing Great Video and Welcome back and Congratulations on getting your new Job at Gentek Performance I think it's awesome that you're living your dream and I'm glad Zach is doing well and I can't wait to hear what happened to his Integra
Congratulations Andy👊🏼I always wanted you to do a cam in my 2018 Camaro. You can easily do it and now with the access to the dyno and tuning. I would love it to get a cam and a tune possibly headers too.Congratulations on your new daily job.🛞
Inspection’s necessary, emissions are a cash grab I’m glad my state doesn’t do that crap. Consider a second channel DFR beyond the shop have anything from racing to activities you’re doing with Linda (Zach) and Skyler, Cars and Coffee once you finish up the projects at your old shop. Have this channel be tuning shop project updates at your new shop you’re working at. I wish you the best with this new venture.

He does know the local people in Pennsylvania with these channels
@@SpeedyGeneralMotorsINC he could know them or have a identical cross roads moment uncertain if they made the right decision ?

Do you know him or something? This comment seems creepy, if you don't.
