The Full Throttle Story
Edward and Brandi Caswell, owners of Full Throttle Automotive, started the business in 2014 after a side gig in their garage became more than their home could handle. Leaving Edward’s teaching career behind with minimal funding, three kids in tow, and a dream Full Throttle Automotive was born. Having little business background, they were able to manage their business and employees without ever going into debt. They found that honesty, transparency, and passion quickly allowed them to become one of the Tri-state’s most reputable auto repair shops. Over the past several years Edward has dedicated his time to gaining wisdom from the Lord and men’s study group, as well as seeking knowledge from other respectable leaders in the automotive industry that have helped him grow both personally and professionally. Edward believes in maintaining efficiency by empowering his employees to carry out the right systems and processes. The success of Full Throttle has allowed them to give back to their community. With the help of their amazing crew, aka “family”, and the support of their customers, Full Throttle has helped fund many high school sports, organizations, and families. Each year the shop hosts a benefit car show to raise funds for the Paul E. Caswell Memorial Fund in honor of Edward’s late father who first instilled in him the art of mechanics as well as the importance of hard work. The memorial fund is used to award scholarships to graduating high school students looking to pursue a career in the automotive industry. Full Throttle has also received multiple Reader’s Choice Awards for the tri-states best in auto repair, oil change service, and tire center along with being a Carfax top-rated center, Napa Gold Certified shop, and the 2024 AAA top shop in the nation. None of which would be possible without their dedicated team and outstanding customers. They look forward to serving the tri-state area for years to come and thank each person that has helped pave the way for Full Throttle’s success. Through it all, Edward and Brandi remain humble and give all the glory to God for His blessings.
