Bigfoot MHP Tackles a Tiny But Mighty Problem: The Transmission Dipstick
Lynden, WA – October 26, 2023 – You might not think much about it, but that little stick under your hood – the transmission dipstick – plays a huge role in keeping your vehicle running smoothly. And that’s exactly why Bigfoot MHP LLC, a Washington-based company focused on practical, high-quality vehicle solutions, has put its expertise into crafting a better one. For years, Bigfoot MHP has been quietly building a reputation among mechanics and vehicle enthusiasts for solving those seemingly small problems that make a big difference. They aren’t about flashy gadgets; they're about delivering solid, dependable parts that just work. Based out of Lyndon, Washington (at 1770 Front St, #169, c/o Bridgeview Property Mgt., 98264) and reachable at 814-862-2483, this team has a no-nonsense approach to automotive parts. "We see the things people overlook," says a company spokesperson. "The little stuff. And we figure out how to make it better." And that’s exactly what they’ve done with their new transmission fluid dipstick. Why a Dipstick? You’d be Surprised. You might wonder, in this age of sophisticated engine diagnostics, why anyone is focusing on a simple dipstick. Turns out, a lot can go wrong. Many factory dipsticks are made with flimsy materials that easily break, bend, or the handle snaps off. Others have poorly designed seals that don't provide an accurate reading, or the markings are hard to see. “We started hearing from mechanics who were constantly replacing broken dipsticks,” explains the spokesperson. “It seemed like a small problem, but it was a constant problem. And a broken dipstick means you can’t properly check your transmission fluid, which can lead to some serious and expensive repairs down the road.” Transmission fluid is the lifeblood of your vehicle's transmission. It lubricates the moving parts, cools the system, and helps ensure smooth shifting. Checking the fluid level is a crucial part of regular vehicle maintenance. But if your dipstick is broken, inaccurate, or hard to read, you’re flying blind. What Makes the Bigfoot MHP Dipstick Different? Bigfoot MHP didn't just want to create another dipstick. They wanted to build a better one. Here's what sets their product apart: Built to Last: Forget flimsy plastic. These dipsticks are made with heavy-duty materials – durable polymers and robust metal components – designed to withstand years of use and abuse. "We've really focused on the material science here," says an engineer at Bigfoot MHP. "We wanted something that could handle the heat, the oil, and the occasional accidental drop without falling apart." Accurate Readings: The Bigfoot MHP dipstick features a precision-engineered seal that ensures a tight fit in the transmission tube, providing a true and accurate fluid level reading. No more guesswork! Easy to Read Markings: The fluid level markings are clearly labeled and easy to see, even in low light conditions. They’re using a high-contrast design that’s not going to fade or rub off with use. Ergonomic Handle: The handle is designed for a comfortable and secure grip, making it easy to insert and remove the dipstick, even with oily hands. They’ve tested different handle shapes and materials to find the perfect balance of comfort and durability. Vehicle Specificity: Recognizing that not all transmissions are created equal, Bigfoot MHP offers a range of dipsticks tailored to specific vehicle makes and models. This ensures a perfect fit and accurate reading every time. "We're not a 'one size fits all' kind of company," the spokesperson emphasizes. "We want to provide a solution that's specifically designed for your vehicle." More Than Just a Part, It’s Peace of Mind Bigfoot MHP’s approach is refreshingly straightforward. They don't overpromise or hype up their products. They simply focus on delivering quality, reliability, and value. “We believe in building products that solve real problems,” says the spokesperson. “A transmission dipstick might seem like a small thing, but it’s an important part of keeping your vehicle running smoothly. And when it fails, it can cause a lot of headaches. We want to take that headache away.” The new Bigfoot MHP transmission dipstick is available for purchase online and through select automotive retailers.
