"Excellent service, quick turnaround, made it to the location in no time, would definitely get their help again!"

"Steve came quickly and was super friendly. He took off the flat and replaced it in minutes. The service was fantastic! We are VERY happy!! Thank you."

"GREAT SERVICE!!! Pulled and diagnosed a bad starter at the rest stop in like 10 minutes (after arrival). Got my wife up and back on the highway, when I was several hours away and unable to help. So my wife was on her way back from a family funeral in Western New York state, driving back to New Hampshire, when she stopped at the I-88 East Bound Rest Stop between Unadilla and Sidney. When she went to start the car again, nothing. We have a 2001 Acura TL with almost 230,000 miles but it runs great (was actually a car I got from my boss as a Tow Operator myself in the San Francisco Bay area as a job "benefit"--a new oil pan and it has given many miles of faithful service--but starters do wear out...). I was unable to drive with my wife, wrapping up my last few days of the school year as a chemistry teacher, so of course I get the dreaded phone call on a Sunday evening before my last day. I ran through the few things I thought she could try, Neutral/Park safety lockout sensor switch, car security immobilizer computer key RFID tricks, locking and unlocking door with the manual key and the key fob, ensuring good battery ground etc... I called around to all the U-Haul's still open on a Sunday night at 5 pm to see if any had any car dollies or car haulers so that I could drive the 5 hours out to the Binghamton NY area and load up our Acura. Only a few were open at all on Sunday, and only a very few past 5, and NONE had any car dollies nor car trailers. Same for Northern and Western Mass. So I called her back, and we resigned ourselves to having to get a local tow to a local garage on a Sunday night, to be dropped off for it to be worked on the next day IF, they could squeeze us in (likely at premium fee's for an unscheduled rush job) to put in a new starter. We researched the local shops, the local hotels, and the local rental car shops planning for the worst. I thought it highly unlikely the tow operator would do anything besides check the battery charge, wiggle a few wires, and perhaps play with the ignition key and the transmission shifter. Well once the owner showed up he had that starter pulled out and bench checked right there at the rest stop in like 15 minutes or less. My wife is texting me what he is doing, and I'm thinking it odd he pulled it to check the resistance on it, but no he pulled it and applied voltage to check if it worked at all. 220,000 miles and 18 years, and parts wear out (and Lonnggg before that too). It was bound up a bit, he was able to get it unbound and to spin on a quick bench test. A few minutes later and he had it back in, and she cranked over fine. Granted this isn't a permanent fix, it still will get us back to home country where our local home mechanic will be able to put a good Napa replacement starter in it sometime this week in our hometown in New Hampshire. Saved us a ton of money, time and aggravation of me driving all the way out with a U-Haul car hauler to get it the 300+ miles back home. THANK YOU!!! Best wishes from one tow operator to another making a go of it and helping people out! I wish you the best and hope your equipment treats you well! Good tow operators and owners are amazing people (I had an AMAZING boss in CA, miss working for the guy--one of the hardest working and kindest person I have ever met).
