Hi Paul,
As more vehicles enter the road, more entry-level technicians will be needed to perform basic vehicle maintenance and repairs. Besides staying busy, here are three reasons why being an auto mechanic could be an amazing career for you.
1. High job satifactional level. The U.S. News and World Report recently ranked automotive technicians to be #7 in Best Maintenance and Repair Jobs.
2. Good Pay for the work performed. While pay is not always one of the reasons you may choose your career path, it does factor into it, especially since you want to be able to make a living. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, automotive technicians can expect to make a median of $19.57 per hour or roughly $40,710 annually.
3. Excellent future job outlook. You will quickly learn that there will ALWAYS be a need for mechanics. Not everyone is trained to be an auto tech and not everyone has the skillset to be one. You are valuable and will find that there are always repairs that need to be done. The Bureau of Labor Statistics expects the number of vehicles in use to continue to rise, so now is a great time to dive in.
Good luck!

Mobile mechanic travels in a truck or van. He goes to wherever he is needed to work on vehicles for either repairs or services. He carries with him all tools and carry out repairs on vehicles at a location chosen by clients provided it is a safe place to work.
As an entrepreneur, the mobile mechanic is the sole manager and bears all risks involved. Besides the risks experienced by any business owner, below are the advantages in being a mobile mechanic:
1) You save time, energy, money and efforts of your clients. As a result, they trust you, and give you recurring work because of your experience.
2) You have many customers because people like to cut expenses in displacing themselves, hence more money.
3)You don't pay rents and taxes like most guarage owners with fixed premises will do, there by saving more money.
4) Nice payment for labor which ranges from $80 to $100 per hour.
5) You don't need to stock parts. Customers order their parts from online shops and you only do your work.
6) There's little or no competition because customers believe in you because of your experience .You are best at what you do.
7) You are cheaper in terms of labor cost and need little or no supervision from your clients because of your experience.
To be a good mobile mechanic is to have great experience in your specialties.
