GIRLS THAT KNOWS CARS
Welcome to Tess Drive.
It’s a place where real people come together — mechanics, dreamers, weekend wrenchers, and anyone who loves the smell of grease and the sound of an engine
Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been turning wrenches for decades, you belong here. Pull up a chair, grab a cold coffee, and stay a while.
Welcome to the Garage

Welcome to the Garage Journal
This is where we slow down and go a little deeper.
Not every story fits in a video. Some moments need more room — the late-night thoughts when the garage door is closed, the lessons we learned the hard way, the quiet victories, the funny failures, and the real life that happens between the wrenches, the paint, and the cold coffee.
Here you’ll find longer stories from the girls and me, behind-the-scenes looks at what we’re building, personal reflections, and the kind of honest conversations that don’t always make it into the videos.
Pull up a chair. The tools are still dirty, the coffee is cold, and the door is always open.
This is the heart behind the garage.
Meet the Garage Crew
No garage is complete without its four-legged (and two-legged, and winged) family. Here are the real bosses of Tess Drive:
Cat – Tess’s independent silver cat. She judges everything from the hood of the ‘55 and only shows up when she feels like it.
Cluckers – Tess’s sassy chicken. She thinks she owns the place and has been known to ride in the passenger seat.
Yuki – Rin’s sleek black cat. Quiet, precise, and always perfectly balanced on the toolbox.
Blue – Tia’s loyal German Shepherd. The official guard of the junkyard and master of the “I’ll wait right here” stare.
Stray Cat – The official shop cat who showed up one day and never left. Master of dramatic naps on the workbench.
Fred – Jellybean’s loud white cockatoo. Professional troublemaker, snack thief, and self-appointed supervisor.
Shadow – Raven’s mysterious raven. Perches in the rafters and occasionally offers dry wisdom in a proper British accent.
They don’t just live here — they help run the place. Come meet the whole crew… if they feel like it.
