Why South Dakota customers mail in bench evaluation / custom job

South Dakota has roughly 1.1 million registered vehicles, and full-size pickups & 4x4 SUVs make up much of what Sioux Falls-area shops and owners mail us. Bench Evaluation / Custom Job is a bench job most Sioux Falls shops don't keep equipment for, so owners and trade shops across South Dakota ship it to a specialist. Cross-region north — about 2-3 days each way.
