Local guy here just went out on his own the last 1-2 years ago. He is busy,and doing great. Granted he knows alot of people and has 20 yrs in already. Hourly rate is half of what dealer is at. $30-50 for service call to come out then his hourly rate kicks in plus $10 bucks an hour. I forget what he marks parts up at but it is fair. Might be 5-15% mark up I don't know. If you think you have the potential to turn it into a good business do it and don't look back. Also talk to vendors about caring filters(baldwin,fleetgard,Donaldson filters). Or anything for that matter. Do good work at a fair price and you will live high on the hog.
