Enthusiast + Entrepreneur = AUTIX

In late 2016 after my wife of 14 years passed away, I purchased a grief present for myself – my 7th Jeep. This one was my dream vehicle: a highly modified 2015 Wrangler JK Unlimited from a well-known custom dealership in Dallas, Texas.

The 4” Teraflex suspension lift, 37” Nitto M/T tires, Smittybilt XRC bumpers, custom leather interior, and Metalcloak front and rear fenders roped me in.

Intending to take my new purchase offroading and to car shows, I requested a detailed build list of all the modifications both for myself and for anyone who asked. When it came back as a copy-and-paste bulleted list from the dealer website, I was surprised.

And that’s when AUTIX was born.

I wasn’t just looking for factory specs, I wanted factory specs PLUS detailed specs on ALL modifications like gear ratio, axles, and engine output - you know, the things that made my Jeep unique.

After getting involved in the local car scene, I started asking around. Surely, I wasn’t the only one who wanted a detailed list of all their vehicle modifications?!?

Just as I thought..I wasn’t alone. Not only Jeep owners, but car enthusiasts young and old, dealerships, and custom shops were frustrated by the lack of a way to keep track and share all of a vehicle’s mods completed by themselves, different shops, dealerships, or even previous owners.

Countless enthusiasts also struggled to get value out of their asset when they went to trade it in to a dealer or sell it to another individual. Many times even removing their mods prior to selling – primarily because they don’t come close to getting the value out of their asset that they’ve put in.

That’s why I created AUTIX.

AUTIX is poised to become the premiere online destination for specialty vehicle owners and enthusiasts to create and share vehicle profiles and maximize the value of their vehicles as an asset.
