What Our Clients Say About Us

When you're learning about a business for the first time, you're probably a little suspicious of what a company says about itself. You're looking for the "real deal" about them, objectively, not some marketing spin. That's why we asked our clients to help us out. We sent a camera to meet each client, and asked them to talk about their experience with Tom Dwyer Automotive. No actors. No scripts. No pay. Just folks like you telling you what they think.

Riding our Courtesy Shuttle

We try to make it as convenient as possible for you to use our service, but sometimes it's hard to maintain your schedule while your vehicle's in the shop. That's why our Courtesy Shuttle is one of our most popular services. We can ferry you to anywhere in a 5-mile radius and then pick you up again when your vehicle is completed. However, coordinating rides all over the city can be hectic on our end, and it can mean upset clients if we can't meet expectations. To make things run smoothly for everyone, here are some details about how the Shuttle works.

The Power To Make A Difference

We all know the golden rule... the one with the gold rules! The solutions for many of our economic, social and environmental problems are constantly vetoed by gold-laden powers that benefit from the status quo. Progressive change must come from us... but how? What power can bring about a future that benefits all of us?

Knowledge is power... here's how to get some!

Join Tom Dwyer Automotive Services for the Illahee Lecture Series as we explore the nature of power and change in our energy, food, and economic systems. You'll learn how leading change agents are successfully taking on powerful interest groups to change our world. The time for sitting on your butt has past. With the power of knowledge you can help make a real difference.

Our Environmental Commitment

At Tom Dwyer Automotive Services, Inc., we act as a responsible member of the community and are committed to expanding our environmentally-conscious practices. As an Eco-Certified Carbon Neutral business, we make a difference by offsetting all of our carbon emissions through the purchase of Green Tags (Green-e certified renewable energy certificates). We continue to lead the industry as an Eco-Logical Business.
  Our Carbon Neutral Program/350

The most recent science says that 350 parts per million(ppm) of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is the upper safe limit for our environment.  Currently we are at 387ppm.  Unless we can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to 350 ppm, our goose is literally cooked!  Go to www.350.org and learn about this worldwide 350 movement.

We've changed our Carbon Neutral Program, designed in partnership with the non-profit Bonneville Environmental Foundation, to reflect the 350.org campaign.  When you join the TDASI Carbon Neutral Program by purchasing Green Tags to help offset each of your vehicle's carbon emissions, you'll receive discount offers worth that total $350 throughout the year of your membership.  We call it "350 to 350". For more information and to sign up, please visit www.TDASICarbonNeutral.org.

Current News

I'm A Democrat, And I'm A Republican (Medicare For All #1) (YouTube)

You may be wonder what this "resolution" is that we are talking about on the web site. Here are a few web links which might help:

In our newsletter we also mentioned a city council meeting which Tom attended. If you are interested, here is the link to the official Portland City Council Meeting recording in its entirety.

City of Portland went on record supporting a health care plan that actually makes sense. Plus, we got a great plug from Commissioner Randy Leonard. See all the action at http://www.portlandonline.com/index.cfm?c=49508&a=265131. The fun starts at time index 36:30 with a strong statement by Randy Leonard, and you'll find Tom's testimony from time index 51:45 to 56:00. (The plug from Commissioner Leonard runs from 56:00 to 57:00, and is really worth hearing). If this is something you support, then CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVE! Democracy doesn't work unless you do.
