About Sims Automotive in Bozeman, MT

Mobile Truck and Auto Repair Serving Bozeman and the Gallatin Valley

Sims Automotive is an owner-operated mobile repair service specializing in trucks and automotive repair throughout Bozeman and the surrounding Gallatin Valley. As a young entrepreneur and United States Marine veteran, the owner brings the same values of discipline, accountability, and hard work into every service call. He built Sims Automotive to provide straightforward, dependable repairs without the hassle of bringing your vehicle to a shop.


There is no shop to drive to—the mechanic comes directly to you, whether you are at home, at work, or stranded on the side of the road.


The approach is simple: quote the job first, take on only the work that can be done correctly, and never put the Sims Automotive name on a repair that is likely to fail shortly after. If a job is outside the scope of what can be completed properly in a mobile setting, you will hear that upfront before any work begins or money changes hands.


Sims Automotive does not offer free estimates or service European vehicles or Sprinter vans. The focus stays on trucks and automotive repairs that can be completed properly in the field. This specialized approach means you are working directly with someone who knows the vehicles he works on and takes pride in doing the job right.

How a Bozeman Valley Side Business Became a Full-Time Operation

The owner grew up working on vehicles and has been doing hands-on repair work since high school. After moving to Bozeman and working in other trades, he started taking on automotive repairs on the side. That side work grew steadily—enough that it eventually outpaced the day job and became the full-time focus. With five years in the automotive industry and repair experience built throughout the Gallatin Valley, the foundation behind this business is practical and earned.


Bozeman's location in southwest Montana means significant seasonal temperature swings that can affect vehicle performance, battery life, and fluid viscosity. Mobile repair in this region requires working in varying conditions and understanding what those conditions do to trucks and automotive systems over time.


Because this is a mobile, owner-operated business, there is no layer of staff between you and the person doing the work. You call, get a quote, and the same mechanic who quoted the job shows up and completes it. That continuity is built into how the business operates.


Sims Automotive serves customers throughout Bozeman and drives out to Belgrade, Four Corners, Gallatin Gateway, Three Forks, Big Sky, and the communities in between. If you are in the valley, there is a good chance service can reach you.
