I'm Pete. The owner of Pete's Automotive Service. We have been in business for 40 years and are THE one stop auto shop in Ellis County. Come and check us out!

The view from our office never gets old.

We get to look out over the shop and watch our crew doing what they do best. Cars on the lifts, tools moving, problems being diagnosed, repairs getting done, and a whole lot of work happening to keep our customers safely on the road.

This week’s Pete’s Automotive Action Figure is Dale Munster. Dale is a respected diesel mechanic with more than 30 years of experience, a talent for teaching new employees the ropes, and a love for weekend plinking. A true automotive hero.

We’ll take care of you till the cows come home.
And around here, the cows really do come home.
After a full day at Pete’s Automotive, Pete and Candice head to the ranch to take care of their own herd.
Shop work, ranch work, and a little fresh air. It is all about balance

Big engines require careful work and good communication.

Dale and one of our newest team members teamed up on this diesel engine, combining experience with a fresh perspective.

Big engines. Careful work. Good teamwork.

The Pete’s Automotive action figure series continues with Austin Ryan. Motorcycle, toolbox, cape, and all.

Austin brings a calm, experienced approach to the shop and loves hitting the road with his wife riding along.

Thursday means employee lunch at Pete’s, rivaled only by Tuesday, when we also feed the crew. 😅 Steve made his famous spaghetti, Susan brought breadsticks and salad, and everyone left happy. A fed team is a happy team.

Supporting a local business does not always require spending money. A review, recommendation, like, comment, or share can help others find a shop they can trust.

We are grateful every time Waxahachie supports Pete’s Automotive.

The grandkids stopped by with homemade dog treats for Rambo and Mini. Safe to say they were a hit.
One of the best parts of having a family business is watching the next generation make themselves at home. Around here, the shop dogs have plenty of fans.

Pete's wife, Vice President of Pete's Automotive, flower gardener, marketing mastermind, and someone who quietly leads with faith, kindness, and grace.
We think she's action figure worthy.
Who's next? 👀

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Customer Review

"Fast, professional, reasonably priced, and no unnecessary upselling."

That's exactly the experience we strive to provide every day. Thanks for trusting Pete's Automotive with your vehicle and for taking the time to share your experience with others.

The miles add up over time, and so does wear and tear.
Routine maintenance helps catch small issues before they become expensive repairs. Whether it's an oil change, tires, brakes, or diagnostics, staying ahead of the schedule can save time and money down the road.

Tuesdays. Thursdays. Lunch bell. Happy technicians.
Today's crew lunch featured Whataburger and a team that didn't need much convincing to head to the break room.
Providing lunch for our crew every Tuesday and Thursday is one of our favorite traditions around the shop.

Replacing an A/C evaporator core isn't always as simple as it sounds. In many vehicles, much of the dashboard has to be removed just to access the part.
What you're seeing in this video is the level of precision some repairs require.

Employee Spotlight: Austin Ryan 🔧
Austin has been turning wrenches for about 25 years and has been part of the Pete's Automotive team for over a year. When he's not at the shop, you'll likely find him on his Honda VTX 1800 enjoying the open road.
Thanks, Austin.

We have the best customers.
A customer dropped off these brownies while we were working on their vehicle. Between treats from customers and homemade goodies from our team, healthy eating can be a challenge around here.
Thank you for taking such good care of us.

[Pete's Tire & Auto @petestires]

Grateful for another week of serving our community.
“Friendly and helped me figure out what was wrong.” “Kept me informed.” “Fast, professional, and affordable.” “Super fast and reliable.”
Thank you for trusting Pete’s Automotive with your vehicles.

This review made our day 🥰

[Pete's Tire & Auto @petestires]

It’s Tuesday, which around here usually means one thing… time to pause, grab some lunch, and reset before getting back at it.
The shop stays busy, but these little breaks matter. Good food, a few laughs, and then right back to taking care of our customers.
