About Torque Lab
Built by technicians who got tired of the upsell.
Dante Reyes spent nine years at dealerships watching customers get quoted for work their cars did not need. In 2011 he rented one bay on Foundry Lane with a simple rule: show the customer everything, and let them decide. Fourteen years later there are twelve bays, eleven technicians and the same rule.

02
Price before work
You approve a written price. If we find something new, we stop and ask. The number never grows quietly.
