Mudhollow combines old-school mechanical judgment and honest roadside service with modern diagnostic technology, stocked mobile units, and the tools required to complete demanding commercial repairs where the breakdown happens.
At Mudhollow Diesel Mechanics, we don't believe you should have to pay a multi-thousand-dollar towing fee just to get an honest diagnostic assessment. Founded on the principles of transparency, hard work, and deep mechanical expertise, Mudhollow has grown into the most trusted name for mobile commercial repair along the I-80 and I-29 corridors through western Iowa.
We operate fully modern shops on wheels, armed with dealership-level computer diagnostic equipment, an extensive roadside parts inventory, and the heavy-duty tools required to perform complex mechanical teardowns right on the highway shoulder.
The work is technical, but the standard is human: urgency, honesty, neighborly dedication, and the capability to solve the problem at the roadside.
A stopped truck isn't just a mechanical issue — it's a driver stranded in freezing weather, a missed delivery deadline, and lost revenue. We treat every single call with the extreme urgency it deserves.
The diesel repair industry is notorious for hidden fees. At Mudhollow, we text our minimum rates upfront. If a fix is incredibly simple, we tell you how to resolve it or handle it quickly without charging you for phantom repairs.
Our lead technician, Zeb, has built a legendary local reputation for pulling over to help stranded owner-operators and families in RVs out of sheer kindness. We carry that exact same "good neighbor" spirit into every official dispatch call.
From heavy-duty semi-truck air line failures and forced DPF regens to RV motorhome fuel pump flushes and trailer axle replacements, we truly do it all.
Zeb is repeatedly mentioned by name in customer reviews because drivers remember the mechanic who arrived quickly, diagnosed the real problem, explained the repair clearly, and treated them with genuine respect during a stressful breakdown.
In the transportation industry, it's not a matter of if a breakdown will happen — it's a matter of when. Don't wait until you're stranded on a dark highway shoulder in a winter storm to hunt for a reliable mechanic.

Thank you . Solved so fast
I would like to share my experience with these guys, and God is my witness.
My rig broke down and left me stranded on the side of the road because of an electrical issue. I was stuck for more than 24 hours in Iowa. Southern Tire Mart at the Pilot on I-80 was trying to tow my truck to the dealership, but they refused to even try to diagnose or fix the problem.
Then I contacted 360 Diesel Repair, and unfortunately, I experienced basically the same thing, just with different people. They charged me for a job they didn’t even complete, and they never fixed my truck. They even refused to charge my batteries.
I spent the whole night on the side of the road with no lights, no power, and no way to do anything. It was a complete nightmare.
But in the end, I found these gentlemen, and at that moment, they honestly felt like angels sent to help me.
They might be a little more expensive, but they are absolutely worth it. These people are professional, knowledgeable, and they really know what they’re doing. They don’t waste your time for no reason, and they will do everything they can to make sure you get back on the road, no matter what the situation is.
Most importantly, they truly understand what it means to be a trucker broken down in the middle of nowhere. They understand the stress and the pressure we go through when our livelihood is sitting on the side of the road.
I truly appreciate everything they did for me. Highly recommended! If you’re a trucker and you ever find yourself stranded, these are the people you want to call.
Hey Zeb is the man with the plan!!! Called him about my problems he told me what it was over the phone.. He came out in no time fix the problem in minutes like it wasn't nun. Us truck driver's appreciate mechanic's like him out here on the road. Stay safe brother keep America moving!!!! 💯🤙🏽
Zep came to the rescue very quickly and made sure we were taken care of! The kindest person who you can tell really cares about his job and the people he works with, and truly knows what he’s talking about! Took the time to explain everything clearly and took great care of us. Thank you so, so much!!
They are Great people and they helped me right away with my truck
You don’t find a company like this every day. Had a driver having issues on a Sunday afternoon. Couldn’t find anybody to take a look at it. These guys went out of their way to look at the truck and diagnose it and didn’t charge to do it. Good people from a good part of America.
If you’re looking for a knowledgeable and experienced technician! Then this is the place I was broke down on the side of the road and had one other mobile mechanic come out and not be very helpful. The moment that I reached out to Mud Hollow It was nothing but professionalism and wonderful experience. Within 15 minutes the technician diagnose the problem I was having and also took it upon himself to fix my starter issue so I wasn’t stranded anymore.
I highly recommend you use this company. They are not only affordable, but they are extremely thorough and take immense of pride in their work!
amazing.
my truck broke down on I-80 east 50 miles from Omaha due a major leak in the valve. i called Mudhollow mobile service. the Mechanic came within 15 minutes after my call and it took him less than 20 minutes to put back on the road. i have had many roadside assistance in the past for truck mechanical issue the wait time was never less than 3 hours. For this company it's less than 15 minutes to get to you. The guy who fix the air leak on my truck is very experienced mechanic.
the price? Amazing! They gave me an estimate upfront through text message. Unlike other mobile service,these guys are very honest ,their first aim is to help you get back on the road ,not to take advantage of your distress to empty your wallet. My bill including parts ,labor and service call is under $500. This is really amazing
Thank you so much Mudhollow

Excellent service! I called, and the mechanic arrived within an hour. He diagnosed and fixed the issue in about 10 minutes, and I was back on the road right away. Everything was fast, professional, and done right the first time. I really appreciate the quick response and great workmanship. Highly recommend this service to anyone who needs reliable roadside assistance!
I just wanna thank these mechanics for being trustworthy and honest.
They found the problem with my truck In less than an hour and fixed it. I can’t thank them enough.
They are very good people
Great mechanics, had an air issue with my trailer suspension and they got me taken care of immediately. Road call was quick and wallet friendly.
Really good service and good price real mechanic in the area
These guys are the best. Had the tools and knowledge to immediately get my family back on the road! Thanks again!
Zep was very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. I came in to adjust my truck’s speed limiter, and he also helped diagnose my APU issue. He shared a lot of valuable information and didn’t even charge me for diagnosing the APU—he only charged me for adjusting the speed limiter. He even told me I could call him anytime if I had questions in the future. He’s a very kind, honest, and reliable mechanic who truly cares about helping his customers. Thank you so much for the excellent service. Keep up the great work!
Was driving through Iowa when my van broke down in Walnut. It was getting late on a Saturday night and when I googled car repair, Mudhollow was the only place still open at 7:30pm. I called and they showed up to help me even though they don’t typically work on regular vehicles. The gentleman was knowledgeable and professional and got me back on the road. No charge!! It was just the kindest thing anyone could do to help someone who had a few kids in the car and needed help. Thanks so much, Mudhollow!
Mudhollow Diesel Mechanic truly went above and beyond for us. We were stuck on the side of the road (I80) with a flat tire, and to make matters worse, our jack had broken.
He pulled over on his own, offered to help, and handled everything with kindness, courtesy, and professionalism. In a stressful situation, he made us feel safe and taken care of.
It is rare to come across someone who is not only skilled, but also genuinely willing to help people when they need it most. This is the kind of business that truly cares about people.
We are so thankful and would absolutely recommend Mudhollow Diesel Mechanic to anyone needing honest, dependable help.
Called to get assistance with a truck and was welcomed by the owner who was more than helpful and told me how to fix it rather than charge me to come out for something so simple. 10/10 will be my first call if I ever need help!
Very quick , efficient and reliable service. One of hose connector came off from trailer brake chamber. I was not able to drive the truck and trailer and got stuck on i80. I called them and mechanic arrived within 30 minutes, fix it in 15 minutes. I was back on the road within one hour. I would prefer calling this facility than calling loves or TA roadside service.
I called a mechanic to perform force regen, but when he arrived, he couldn't do it. He didn't charge me anything and even suggested I find a shop nearby.
He's very knowledgeable and provides excellent service. I highly recommend calling this technician if you have any problems.
Came out and got me fixed in 45 minutes, The other mechanic wanted to tow me and charged me 4500 bucks! Great service good price
