There’s a reason more and more people are becoming entrepreneurs. The freedom, opportunity and self-satisfaction of paving your own road offers unparalleled highs. For Chris Ol, his dream was to open his own automotive shop after working for several years as the lead technician for other businesses. Due to his ambition and the help of his supporting partner, Felixx Cho, his dream became a reality.

Entrepreneurship isn’t for everyone. It’s not possible without a ton of sacrifice, skill and support. Thankfully, for Chris, he had this all going on, and he was ready to take some risks.

“I left my previous job because I support Chris”, Felixx said. “I had already achieved my dream of working in the film industry, but Chris was still looking up at the stars as if they were impossible to reach. I decided it was his turn to reach out and grab the stars, so I made a sacrifice to help him realize his dream.”

Chris and Felixx make use of their Tacoma taking it out on average twice a month.

When the couple first bought the Tacoma, it had a bit of surface rust but was in great running condition and completely stock. It was ready for its new life.

“THE FIRST SET OF MODIFICATIONS THEY PLANNED WOULD COVER THE ESSENTIALS BY OUTFITTING THE TRUCK WITH SUSPENSION, NEW TIRES AND SLIDERS.”
