Today's Strictly Diesel is the result the 2010 merger of two independently successful diesel businesses. ITP Diesel, originally formed in 2001 by Dennis Schroeder, was a popular mail order parts supplier and manufacturer of custom fuel system products for the Ford Powerstroke market. Strictly Diesel was first formed by Nate Brekken in 2005. After 15 years as a technician at various dealerships, Nate wanted to focus solely on the service and repair of light duty diesel vehicles. By the time they met in 2007, both Nate and Dennis had firmly established their businesses in their respective markets. Over the next few years they worked together on numerous jobs, with ITP Diesel supplying parts and Strictly Diesel performing the labor. By 2009 it had become obvious that both companies were working toward goals that would result in ITP Diesel and Strictly Diesel becomming competitors, putting a great business relationship at risk.
In June of 2010, after months of planning, the two companies merged under the much cooler "Strictly Diesel" name and moved in to the current 15,000 square/foot facility in North Phoenix. Together as one company, Strictly Diesel is better equipped to handle everything from vehicle service, repair and performance upgrades to new product design, manufacturing, and mail order sales. Strictly Diesel has assembled a terriffic group of positive, customer oriented employees that are ready to take care of all of your light duty diesel needs.
