Built on the Road, Proven in the Shop: Randy Shephard and 52 Years of Diesel Integrity

Randy Shepherd has one standing policy at TBC Truck, Trailer Repair & Diesel Performance. If he doesn't know, he says so. To some, that might sound like a modest admission. To a diesel mechanic who has been under the hood since the mid 1970s, before onboard computers, before electronic fuel systems, before the industry became a labyrinth of compliance thresholds and federal mandates, it is the bedrock of how he believes business ought to be done.

Headquartered in Missouri, TBC Truck has been a fixture of the commercial trucking industry for the last five decades. Shepherd has watched the business evolve from a single mobile service operation into a full-service diesel shop offering engine overhauls, transmission rebuilds, dealer-level diagnostics, chassis and suspension work, trailer and fleet repair, and a high-performance diesel division that draws as much passion from the family as it does clientele.
