A man in a Jaguar passed a Mini that had broken down by the side of the road. Being a kindly driver, he stopped and fixed a tow-rope to it and began towing it to the nearest garage. After 5 minutes of towing, a Porsche passed them at high speed. The Jaguar driver was not going to be outdone by a Porsche, so, forgetting that he had a Mini in tow, slammed his foot down and the Jaguar and Porsche indulged in a high-speed race down the road, the Mini and it's occupant trailing wildly about at the end of the rope frantically trying to attract their attention and failing.
A Police car saw them and gave chase. The Police driver radioed back to Headquarters "Sarge, you'll never going to believe this, I've just seen a Porsche and a Jaguar neck and neck doing 150 mph - and a guy in a Mini flashing his lights, blowing his horn and trying to overtake them!"
Ok, enough with the jokes. If you ever were stuck on the side of the road you probably weren't laughing unless you have a funny story how you ended up there. In this case there is no funny story. I also couldn't find someone with a Jaguar to help tow my car so I could write about some crazy adventure.
I had roadside coverage so I called and when they finally came, the driver told me that they because my car is lowered that I take the chance of them messing up my bumper. Hmmm I asked what are the chances of that happening? He told me he doesn't know and asked if I want him to tow my car or not? I said that's ok. So I called my mechanic who told me that they sold their tow truck and to call Tip Tows. "Tip tows?" WTH is Tip Tows and are they good as I told them what the first tow truck said. He said this guy is good and to give them a call 222-3432 and ask for Big Boy and tell him that Kenny said to call. I called him, well I called the number and just asked for a tow truck and told them what the other tow truck driver said about my car being lowered and stuff. They said it should be ok. Well after 30 min of waiting he finally shows up. He took a look at my car and I told him what the other guy said about my car being lowered and how it might mess up my bumper. He told me that it isn't a problem. Btw I like this guy's tow truck better as it looks newer than the old scratched up and dirty one that came first.
As he hooked up my car up, (yes I was watching him all the way) it didn't even look like my bumper wasn't even going to be a problem. I don't even know what the first guy was talking about but then again it could of been this guy knows what he is doing.
Another plus was that they take Visa, Mastercard, or debit unlike the other guys who took only cash. Hey come on, who carries that much cash on them anyways now days.
All in all, this company is right on. Took care of my baby from the beginning right down to the end. If you need a tow, or a jump start, and you can't find a Jaguar to pull you, I highly recommend calling Tip Tows for all your towing needs. read more
