| From the age of 13,
Dave would detail vehicles for friends and family.
After being so inspired for the love of auto detailing he
then decided to pursue his auto detailing dream by working
for small mom and pop shops in Lackawanna County. In
the year 1998, Dave landed his all time career with Kelly
Volkswagen, in Scranton PA. In 1999, Dave met his sole
mate Lucia Piccolino-Peregrim on a blind date at the former
Steering Wheel Restaurant, now known as the 12 Penny in
Moosic, PA. In 2001, the couple was married and was
living in Dickson City. Dave would do detailing jobs
on the side at the apartment house but it was getting too
difficult because of the fact that they were renting their
dwelling, so in 2002, they moved to 715 Fig Street, where
Ricochets Rapid Detail was born. The garage had
nothing, but thanks to their hard work these past few years
since the company was born , they now have the ceiling, the
walls, the heat/water in the garage, the basic necessities
that they need. Lucia, having the past business
history she did with Lucia's Pizza from 1984-2001, opened up
the business full force in 2004 as a DBA and recently
incorporated into an LLC in 2007.
So now you are probably
wondering how we got the name "Ricochet's Rapid Detail".
Dave's nickname is 'Ricochet' and is well known as Ricochet
Dave and the business name Ricochets Rapid Detail comes from
no one other than the famous cartoon character Ricochet
Rabbit. This was a nickname given to him by the crew
at Kelly Volkswagen when he started working there in
1998. The people at Kelly call him Ricochet because of
the speed and quality Dave delivers when it comes to
cleaning your car. As Ricochet Rabbit would say,
"Ping, ping, ping!" |
