Thankfully, those companies didn't work out because as soon as I called Oscar Towing, I was given a flat rate up front. We had the pleasure of working with Jose, who set a time and was there as soon as possible. He communicated with me the entire trip so there was no guess work. Thank you, Jose! We appreciate the last-minute request and how you went above and beyond to ensure our car was delivered so quickly. Will definitely recommend Oscar Towing to friends and family and use in the future.

Escondido Towing was careful, welcoming and arrived right on estimate for the job they got done for me. It's fantastic knowing you're in good hands during otherwise hectic situations, and this was the epitome of such a feeling. My driver, Kurt, was a pleasure to speak with on the commute over to my shop and made sure take my mind off the situation. That's the kind of service I want, just simple everyday kindness as we truck forward(pun intended!). I know it's never a great feeling needing to call a tow truck your way, but for what it's worth, try to make it these guys if you ever have the option. It'll make your day at least a little better, guaranteed.

We called AAA, and Gregg from Dick's Towing contacted us enroute. He initially said that he didn't have the tools for opening the trailer and that we would need a locksmith, but that he could at least open up our locked pickup so the two of us and our two dogs could wait inside while waiting for a locksmith to come up the mountain. Did I mention it was Memorial Day? Anyway, Gregg arrived about 7:15 p.m. after a one hour wait and was super enthusiastic. He had thought about how we could have locked ourselves out of an RV, and said he would try to open the door. Two minutes later, and the door was open! We had locked the door handle which stays locked if you shut the door from outside. But the deadbolt wasn't locked so he was able to jimmy it without any damage, something he had seen before. My wife and I gave him a huge hug. We would have probably had to spend the night in the truck before a locksmith could get there, and that could have cost several hundred dollars. No food, no heat, two dogs... Gregg was epic! Huge shout out to Dick's!

Best Car Buying Experience I've Ever Had - Hands Down!…read more I can honestly say this was the best car-buying experience I've ever had. Escondido Auto went completely above and beyond from the moment I walked in. Cisco was the sales professional who helped me, and he was incredible. No pressure, no gimmicks, no wasted time -- just straightforward, honest service. He made buying my Tesla unbelievably easy. The entire process took about 45 minutes, and I was driving off feeling confident and excited. They truly had the best prices around, and everything was transparent and smooth. Cisco answered every question, explained everything clearly, and made sure the whole transaction was stress-free. You don't find service like this very often. If you're looking for a dealership that values your time and treats you right, Escondido Auto is the place to go -- ask for Cisco! I'm already planning to come back for a truck in the near future. That's how good the experience was. Highly, highly recommend!

We could tell that the people at EASC weren't concerned only with making a sale, but with making sure we felt satisfied and secure with our purchase. We'd recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a used car, and will be our first stop in the future.

BUYER BEWARE…read more Unfortunately I had to come and replace my once GLOWING TESTIMONIAL with a now, regrettably revised version, now that I have all the facts. Fact of the matter is that after having spent $4596.39 at this place that OVERLOOKED MAJOR COMPONENTS during my vehicle service as verified by Encinitas Ford I was obligated to update my review accordingly. The facts are as follows; 1) I am on disability and only get $1200/monthly and these people totally extorted me by not servicing my vehicle correctly 2) I trusted them to take care of my vehicle and they didn't (BUYER BEWARE/Careful who you trust) 3) I had to incur EXTRA COSTS as a low income person to inspect their work that substantiated this place overlooked key components related to the service requested (TRANSMISSION SERVICE) 4) After spending FIVE MONTHS OF MY INCOME my truck is STILL NOT UP TO PAR.

My pick up is a bit low but not that low. I was shocked and didn't know what to say when he told me that. I decided that was ridiculous and left. I was glad I did because I went around the block to a different shop that's right across the street from city hall, that has the exact same style of drive on ramps, they didn't hesitate to take on the repair and did it in 15 ish minutes for $50 out the door. If Joor was charging me $250 to rack it, I wonder what they would have charged for the weld job.
