Am I the only one with AAA plus?

I'm on my third year with it now. I picked it up after my accident. It's great when you own an e30 lol.

Nope - try only 50k brand spanking new.

Throw on some extra gas cans, and that cute little miniature trash can they always have on the back and you got yourself a rig.



And yes, you have to take into account the cost spread over time - so - I'm right - and you are wrong - :D

Sure, and you buy yourself bottom of the line cars too, right?

Anyways, you're not going to change my mind - but I bet you can't resist posting a follow up.

Just for you, chuckletits.

AAA plus. i has it.

new trucks are worth more like 70-120k IIRC. I'm not going to go hunting for prices because you'll just argue that they should buy used.

Hey, you gave a trucker a hand job, nothing to be embarrassed about. If that's your thing - I say go for it!

Personally I would have used the fact that it stayed "overnight" to point something out, you get a C-.

Hand jobs discounts don't count Nancy.

So, all you have to do is be friendly with the guy and you won't get screwed? Oh, and I've been doing it wrong all this time. Thanks!

Logic fail and wit fail.

[george graves]

all because I was friendly with the guy

what a fine system we have... 7 cops involved to handle a payment transaction.

[Wh33lhop]

Just did - you can get a nice 3 or 4 year old wrecker for less than $30k - you are right I was surprised they were so cheap.

No, I'm pretty sure I'm talking about all of them.

Good, new trucks are worth more like 70-120k IIRC. I'm not going to go hunting for prices because you'll just argue that they should buy used.

I couldn't care less about your misguided generalizations, the last tow truck driver I dealt with was chill as fuck. I did not have to pay to use the impound lot overnight, I did not have to pay for the tow or recovery time (about an hour) of my car, I did not have to pay for the off-the-record tow to a friend's house the next day, all because I was friendly with the guy and explained my situation.

Check out how much a good tow truck costs.

but the bad ones are the ones that get talked about more.

epic!

[Wh33lhop]

hahaha nice.

Not only do they get you with the initial tow, try having your car sit in one of their lots for a couple days. I had to pay $80.00 a day as my totaled Ranger sat in an empty lot while I tried to find a salvage yard to take it away. I was out of town when all of this happened (shitty winter freak accident, 2wd ranger), and the whole ordeal ended up costing me almost a grand. ("emergency" towing, lot storage fee, 3 nights hotel, hospital visit.)

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

/end rant

I dodged a bullet when I totalled my last car, the driver was very friendly.

Tow truck drivers are kind of like cops. Not all of them are tools, but the bad ones are the ones that get talked about more.
