Garage Mechanic?

[skeet1983]

Hi guys. I have all staff recruited for HQ, except for Garage Mechanic. I am in the Bizarre/Warrens areas, and just finished the quest where I clear out the gangs (?). How/where can I get a Garage Mechanic? Thoughts and help appreciated :)

I think its Randy Gett? He hangs out inside the Bizzare,between ground entrance and doctor. Just talk to him at any point and complete his quest.

You have to clear the outside area and defeat Stenerud, then free the refugees he was enslaving, then go back to Colorado Springs and arrest Mama Cotter, then talk to Gideon Reyes in Broadmoor. If you find the rubber ducky buried outside, you can use that, or money, or a kiss ass check on the caravanner guy in the bar area to get him to take the refugees.

Thanks for the info! Where can I find Mama Cotter?

in outside Colorado Springs, sitting there doing mostly nothing. FYI the caravanner guy is in the inside bar area in The Bizarre, I might not have made that part clear.

Gett is an Experienced Mechanic who your garage staff drops hints about but isn't necessary to complete the Full House mission. The alternative to Radiac's solution is to allow Mama Cotter to continue bringing in Refugees in which case the Cotter boys will become your garage mechanics. But that will tick off the Hundred Families and Reyes will not become your political advisor.
It's still a good idea to complete Gett's mission since you can find the recipe to the Razor Linkage at his homestead. Talk to him after he arrives at Ranger HQ and he will give your entire team a unique Perk.

Conversely you can side with Mama Cotter and her sons will work in your garage.

Randy Gett is just like an extra piece in your garage... I really don't know if even adds anything either way.

Sorry for being a year late ...

Minor question : can you recruit both Randy Gett and other mechanics (either Arapaho via Gideon quest or the Cutters) or does recruiting Randy Gett somehow lock the others?

I of course prefer to check if the order matters before being locked out (I prefer the Arapaho/Hundred families, but will add Randy too if possible).

Yes you can recruit both the arapaho/families mechanic and randy.
