A little about the owner of Dakota Ridge Complete Automotive, TJ Cobbett.

Rooted in Littleton. Driven by excellence. Guided by integrity.

A little bit about me:

I’m a Colorado native and lifelong Littleton resident, and for the past 17 years, I’ve proudly built a successful local business. As the owner of one of Colorado’s first NAPA Gold Certified shops, I’ve worked hard to earn a reputation for quality, trust, and leadership. My business has been part of multi-shop leadership groups for over a decade, and I’m constantly seeking out new training opportunities—because for me, excellence isn’t just a goal, it’s the standard.

That same commitment carries into everything I do. Whether I’m working with vendors or advocating for school growth, I lead with clear communication, accountability, and a long-term vision.

When I’m not working, you’ll often find me on the golf course or mountain biking—two activities that help me stay connected to Colorado’s natural beauty and take a break from the pace of city life.

As a parent, community advocate, and Collegiate board member, I’m deeply invested in collaboration, innovation, and ensuring that Littleton continues to thrive for generations to come.

At Dakota Ridge Automotive, we take pride in our staff.  We employ some of the most skilled and friendly people to serve you. Please feel free to look through our employee bio information and get to know our staff, both professionally and personally.  We want you to know everyone, from the technicians working on your car to the staff members who greet you when you enter the shop, so that you’ll always feel comfortable discussing any questions you might have with any of our fantastic staff.
