A mother of 5 with 3 grandchildren, Mandy began writing service in 1994 for her dad at a small independent shop in Moorcroft, WY called Williams Auto Repair. Since that time she has also written service for Thunder Basin Ford in Gillette, WY and Spradley Barr Ford in Fort Collins, CO before coming to Platinum Garage in 2017.

Spending time with her family is at the top of what Mandy likes to do in her free time. When not with them, she can often be found on the banks of the Powder River with her fishing line in the water hoping to catch a record-breaking catfish or sturgeon. She also enjoys spending time in her garden, tending to her animals, and working in her yard.

When it comes to customer service, Mandy says “Communication and honesty are the two most important factors in providing superior customer service.”

With over 20 years of experience in the automotive industry, Tedi Sutherland is a great asset to Platinum Garage Team. She began her career detailing cars at an autobody shop in Buffalo, WY and eventually moved into the office where she learned to write work orders and dispatch work. Tedi spent 14 years at Thunder Basin Ford as both a Senior Master Service Writer and a Certified Service Manager. She also managed the service department at Chuck Deluxe Harley Davidson for 1.5 years.

Family and friends are very close to Tedi’s heart and she enjoys spending time with them every chance she can. When she is not working, Tedi likes to spend time in the Big Horn Mountains camping, riding the Can Am, and riding Harley Davidson Motorcycles. Floating Sand Creek is another favorite past time along with touring the back roads of Wyoming and South Dakota.

When it comes to customer service, Tedi feels “It is imperative to give excellent customer service.”
