About Me

Steve Buchanan Omaha is the epitome of a hands-on, solution-oriented professional. His journey through the world of auto mechanics and performance diagnostics, though now in the rearview mirror due to retirement, is still a cherished part of his life. He passionately continues to dabble in mechanical vehicles, a testament to his enduring love for the craft.

A notable highlight of Steve's career was his role as the producer and host of "Mr. Mechanic," a popular radio show on Omaha's News Radio 1110 KFAB-AM. This show, a staple in local broadcasting since its inception in 1988, ran on Saturday mornings and became Omaha's longest-running local show. For over a quarter of a century, he was the voice of automotive wisdom, adeptly tackling a wide array of questions about cars, their maintenance, and repairs. His expertise was seldom challenged, with only a few questions ever leaving him stumped. The show also featured guest hosts, including managers of his Service Centers and the car expert, Dr. Mark Grabow.

Beyond the airwaves, Buchanan is recognized as a successful entrepreneur. He skillfully built a thriving business encompassing fuel services, auto mechanics, and a convenience store. His proficiency as an auto mechanic and diagnostician is unparalleled. Additionally, his skills extend beyond the road; he is also an accomplished pilot and boat captain.

In his leisure time, he continues to engage in engine diagnostics and repairs, a hobby that keeps his mechanical skills sharp. His love for speed and mechanics finds an outlet in driving speed boats and piloting airplanes. This thrill of velocity, be it on water or in the air, is a source of great enjoyment for him. Moreover, his beachside residence offers a serene backdrop for his adventurous hobbies.

Rooted in the Midwest, Steve Buchanan Omaha was born in Sioux City, Iowa, and spent a significant part of his life in Omaha. Now, embracing the joys of retirement, he has chosen South Florida as his haven. Here, surrounded by the warmth of family and friends, he savors the tranquil yet vibrant rhythm of retired life.
