Look, I want to talk about something that happened yesterday, because if you run a shop or a truck anywhere in this country, it affects you whether you realize it or not.
Yesterday, Monday, October twenty-sixth, Strickland Brothers announced the grand opening of their newest shop in Hillsboro, Texas. Now, Hillsboro is a small town. It's not Dallas, it's not Houston. And that is exactly the point I want to make today.
Strickland Brothers is a ten-minute oil change chain out of Winston-Salem, North Carolina. They started in twenty sixteen, so they're only ten years old, and they are already at more than two hundred ninety locations in twenty-seven states. This Hillsboro shop is their twenty-sixth location in Texas alone. Ten years, almost three hundred stores. Let that sink in for a second.
