Bogi has hosted the popular MotorTrend series ALL GIRLS GARAGE since it launched in 2012. As a young woman Bogi pursued automotive repair as a career, becoming an ASE master certified technician and custom car builder. Her passion for empowering women through auto repair led her to found Girl Gang Garage, a unique auto shop whose purpose is to encourage and champion the entry and advancement of women within the automotive and skilled trade industries.
I would say she could work on my car anytime she wants

She's allright. Bruno annoys me more, but it's easy to change the channel. I mean, it's just passive entertainment.....It isn't like I'm not going to let any of them work on anything of mine

With few exceptions, and Bogi is not one of them, I wouldn't let those TV mechanics touch my stuff.

I haven't seen any of the Bogi episodes yet. I am a couple seasons behind and have been catching up. My favorite was season 1, Lauren Bohlander (or Kanaan) followed by Cristy. Heather really didn't do much for me, but I also am not enamored by Courtney Hansen like everyone else is. I prefer Katie Osborne. Or would if I ever watched Power Block anymore. Is it even still on?
1969 Dart GTS 340 1969 Super Bee X9 N-96 1969 Coronet R/T X9 N-96 2015 Dodge Dart GT 2019 Ram 2500 Big Horn. Looking for the original block for my Bee. The last 4 are 7449

I saw the road runner episode. She's not eye candy like the other girls, but seems ready to get her hands dirty.

I like the show too, although I haven't seen the latest version yet. My only real complaint is the unreal time lines. Always with the drama of far less time than necessary to get the job done. Seems like the time constraint is a common denominator in many of today's shows. Seems that they teach more about cutting corners and getting it done quick than anything else. Why can't they just devote the proper time to get done right what they are going to do? At least they are not a full blown commercial for their sponsors. They do keep that in check unlike many of the other car repair shows.
Master, again and still

Most of the shows that I have watched , some type of family connection is mostly involved , kids or parents
So I would think it’s about getting the car out of the garage and moving on its own versus a restoration or perfection

i just need someone to show up here and get my junkers together so i can coast 'em around the block before i croak...................... ..................... Me too!!! The show started off with a nice idea of helping people get their old projects finished up but then it got complicated with money. Same problem that happens to most reality shows. Heather was a real sweetheart on the show, seemed super nice and fun. I'd like to hang out with Joe sometime but I have zero interest in spending any time with Bruno.

My wife and I personally don't care for all girls garage and there's other car shows we don't care for either. Joe seems like a cool Mopar guy to meet, Bruno we don't care for lol!

Ok, I am friends with everyone on the crew. I hang with Ronnie and Joe on occasion and I've been a part of at least 4 different Garage Squad episodes. Yes, Cristy had a scheduling conflict since her other show got moved around because of COVID, so she couldn't do GS this year. So Bogi stepped in. Bogie is a legit, owned multiple repair shops, done SEMA project cars, etc... She is more in the European car world than American Muscle, but she knows her stuff. Heather was a diva, I'll leave it at that. Bruno... doesn't come out of his trailer unless they need him to shoot something. The parts and services are paid for through sponsorships and such with the TV production. There is not extra crew that comes in. It really is the four guys working on these cars, Joe, Ronnie, Cy and Kingster with help from family. Sometimes they have an upholstery guy come in, or take the engine to a shop. But there is no magic crew that come in. When they aren't working on the show, they go back to being regular mechanics at shops around roughly Joliet, IL. The time line is not one of needing to force for TV, it is because of TV material rental agreements. The production company rents most of the big parts of the stuff they use from local rental places. They have this setup months ahead of time, usually it is 8 days of shooting per episode, with a weekend in between. I don't know what money you're talking about? It has never been about the money. If you guys have any questions, let me know. [img] https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50486042026_4f46b4f992_c.jpg[/img]

The show is filmed here in the northern Illinois area and I've seen a few of the cars they worked on at events. I was at a big cruise where that custom '68 I think it was, Barracuda made its debut. I remember it rolling in with cameras around and a bunch of hoopla. On the show the scenes from the cruise lasted about 30 seconds! Funny how that works! I sat in at a world series of poker final rounds by happenstance a number of years ago. We were there for quite some time watching. The TV version was 14 minutes.

I ran into Bruno at the 2019 Gatornationals and told him I agree with Joe that there needs to be more Mopars on the show. He laughed and said no. I brought up that one episode where they rebuilt a 340 and Bruno said he was surprised it had so much power because, in his words, "Come on, it's a Mopar." I told him more than one big block car has seen the tail lights of a 340 powered car. He said he has since come to agree it is a stout engine.

I very much enjoy the show and it seems to me everyone on there is pretty talented. Especially Joe and Cy I would say, but everyone including Bogi. She seems legit and I agree that Heather seemed like a real down to Earth girl and a sweetheart. That big smile didn't seem fake. I see them cut corners but then this is a show about coming to YOUR garage and getting something back on the road and sometimes back on the road is so much better than sitting on blocks. And I'd love to hang out with Joe, as others have written.
The one and only thing about the show that's EXTREMELY tiresome to me is Bruno's stale anti-Mopar/Pro-Chevy "jokes". Enough already. We get it. We got it the first 100 times. And how much time does he spend getting his hair just perfect?

Saw Bogi at Barret two years ago. Didn’t realize it at the time she was standing in front of me promoting a device that tilts a car forward or backwards. I talked with her a bit, seemed like a nice person.

Wife and I met Joe at Carlisle this year. She went to get his autograph Saturday morning while I was cruising the swap meet. When I got back to the car she was all excited, said that she showed Joe a pic of our Daytona clone and asked him if he would stop by and sign it. He said he would stop by after the autograph session which ends at 11. I rolled my eyes, yeah right I thought. At 1:15 my friend Bryan who was parked across from us with his 69 R/T wanders over with his hands up saying "Where's Joe, where's the big celebrity?" A voice from behind him says "I'm right here, sorry I'm running late Lori". My wife couldn't believe Joe remembered her name, I have trouble remembering my kids names. Super nice guy, signed the trunk lid, got a bunch of pics with him next to our car, I'd post them but never bothered to figure out how. We talked a bit about his Daytona drag car, I thanked him for taking the time out of his busy schedule to sign the car. A true ambassador for the Garage Squad show.

I also would like to hang out with the GS crew with the exception of Bruno. I had heard that about him. I always thought the females were just eye candy but Bogi seems to be the real deal. I enjoyed watching Heather as she is the blonde twin to a girl I dated many years ago. She loved working on her car or mine and didn't hesitate one minute to crawl under and get dirty. Tim
