Drive-Radio’s Pit Crew

John Rush

John Rush

Founder & Host | ASE L1 & X1. AAM

John started working in his grandfather’s car dealership Rush Motors in 1978. John worked in every area of the dealership from 1978 – 1985. The dealership was sold in 1985 so John and his dad started John’s 4×4 Center in Boulder (1986) & Ft Collins (2000). John’s father left the business in 1990 to start another business and John continued building one of the premier 4×4/Auto shops in Colorado and the Nation. John sold the business in Aug of 2012 but is still very active in the Auto Industry consulting & coaching with other shop owners and currently manages and maintains his own large fleet of vehicles and equipment.

Auto Reviews

Richard Rush has been helping his father John with auto reviews for the past 5 years. Richard has grown up around cars of all sorts but particularly enjoys muscle cars. He manages a successful outdoor maintenance business which gives him a particular edge when it comes to reviewing heavy duty vehicles. He is also the father of two young boys and often shares his thoughts on fitting car seats and diaper bags into different models.
