pected to grow to $39.8 billion. The average licensed
driver in the U.S. will spend $200 a year on auto re-
pairs/maintenance.

ognized Gould. “I expect to continue the growth that
we’ve had over the last 20 months,” he said.
Wilson shares the optimism and so do all Midas team
members and franchisees.
