About Cold Front Diesel

Veteran Owned • Est. 2015

Our Story

Cold Front Diesel is a Veteran owned business that was established in 2015. As the common trend of most shops, it started as 2 “friends” David and Caden who met working at a CAT dealership after they got out of college. They worked there on semi trucks and equipment, then on the weekends would work on diesel pick-ups on the side as a way to fuel their passion and make some extra money.

Only in this scenario, they did not start off in a driveway or garage. Instead, they were lucky enough to mooch some bay space in David's Fathers shop, Schaefer's Auto Repair Inc. A fully operational shop with all of the tools and equipment you could imagine. After building a stable foundation, in 2022 they were able to make the official transition to full time operation.

At Cold Front Diesel, we specialize in diesel truck repair and maintenance as well as truck accessories. We believe in offering only the highest quality products and take great pride in our attention to detail. Through these avenues, we provide service that gives the customer a pride in ownership and something to show off.
