Lifetime customer view
Every visit, every service, every photo on one timeline. Loyalty + tier reflects total spend.
Montana state context
Montana VLT laws + market context.
Film laws: Montana allows 24% VLT on front side, 14% on rear sides + back glass. Windshield: top 6 inches AS-1 line. Medical exemption available.
Market: Bozeman's growth (tech + outdoor lifestyle transplants from California + Seattle) is driving a meaningful PPF demand for trucks and SUVs that see gravel-road + snow use. Smaller market overall but premium per-shop volumes.
Operators: always verify current VLT statutes with the Montana DOT before quoting work. Laws and enforcement vary by county; medical exemptions usually require state-issued documentation.
