About 4x4 and More

4x4 and More was founded in 1990 by Christopher and Roberta Forbes. Chris was a master Technician for Chrysler/Jeep/AMC for over 10 years. With a passion for 4WD and a strong commitment to customer service, Chris and Roberta started a business that specialized in, and only repaired, Jeep vehicles.

In 2004, Eric Forbes (Chris' Son) and his wife Catherine took over 4x4 and More. Eric realized with all the different makes of 4×4′s on the road, and the strong demand for lift kits and off-road enhancements, that the business needed to broaden its offerings to cater to those who didn't just own Jeeps. Jeeps remain a strong focus of our business, but they are not the only focus. Today, 4x4 and More is the go to shop for Jeep repair in our area, and for many, we're the only shop they trust.

In January of 2017, Eric and Catherine sold the business to focus on their next goals. Eric is a mechanic at the fire department achieving his goal of becoming a fireman. Cat is going back to school with the goal of advancing her education.

4x4 and More was purchased by Scotts Valley resident, Dan Watkins, through 4×4 and More Enterprises, Inc. It is now run by our team of local mechanics.
