We attempted our own low-budget version of Hot Ones

Jon asked the questions. Alex, Adrian & Ari ate the wings.

We had no celebrity guests, no fancy set and absolutely no idea what we were doing.

Honestly, it worked. 🌶️😂

🚨 Your oil change reminder might be lying to you.

3,000 miles? 5,000? 7,500? Somewhere in between? The answer isn’t the same for every vehicle—or every driver. Mileage, driving habits, age and even the type of oil matter.

🚒 Just a little reminder because this one deserves a spot on your calendar!

The Kirkland Fireman’s Dance is September 19, and our own Logan & Tobias will be there doing what they do when they’re not helping customers at our Sycamore shop—serving their community. ❤️

Live music, BBQ, cold drinks, raffles, a silent auction, and a 36” Blackstone Griddle door prize. Basically, your Saturday night has plans now. 😉

Come out, have some fun, and support the Kirkland Fire Department!

Happy National Buttered Corn Day! 🌽🧈

Yeah…you see that much butter. We see it too. No, we will not be taking questions at this time. 😂

Some things in life require moderation. Buttered corn is clearly not one of them.

Meet Winifred. 🥹🐾

She’s just over ONE POUND. One. Tiny. Little. Pound. And somehow, that was more than enough to completely derail the Sycamore shop. 😂

Josh, one of our techs, and his son brought Winifred in for a little visit this week, and this sweet girl had us absolutely GUSHING. Calm, gentle, cuddly, ridiculously adorable… basically everything you need to turn grown adults into complete mush.

And yes, that’s Tobias, our Sycamore service advisor, pictured here doing what the rest of us were doing: falling hopelessly in love with her. 😂

Winifred was recently adopted from Tails Humane Society, and we’re pretty sure she already knows she owns the place.

Welcome to the Bockman’s family, sweet girl. 💛🐾

🎉 OKAY WILL, TODAY’S YOUR DAY. 🎉

It’s Will’s birthday, so naturally we’re making a little noise about it. 😂 He’s one of our DeKalb techs, and we’re genuinely glad he’s part of the crew. Today, the spotlight is yours, Will. Hope you have a seriously good birthday! 🎂🤘

🎉 WELL, SAM… LOOK WHAT YOU’VE DONE.

Today is Sam’s birthday AND his 16th anniversary with Bockman’s. Sixteen years! At this point, we’re pretty sure he’s stuck with us. 😂

Seriously though, having Sam as part of the Bockman’s family for 16 years is something we don’t take for granted. We appreciate the heck out of you, Sam. Happy birthday and happy 16th! 💛🖤🐝

Josh, this one hits a little different. 💛 When someone sticks with you for years and brings their family’s vehicles along for the ride, you don’t take that lightly. We’re incredibly grateful for the trust you’ve put in us all these years. Thanks for being part of the Bockman’s family. 🐝
