I agree that it's getting a little outa hand....some guys that BAD didn't even know come knock on the door...WTF is that....atleast when I've had guys that come knock on the door I've known them...lol I mean shit...a tow from a recovery company is gonna cost ya like atleast 200-300 and if it gets stuck getting you out...the cost goes up from there.......Just ask Gotmud what he went through years ago with his dad's ol' RamCharger.....and what a recovery company wanted to charge him and stuff Gonna play....gotta play ;D

You have no idea how many of those calls I have had. GM is terrible for stupid newbies going out there stock. I generally break 1-2 straps a year and people tend to remove a couple shackles a year from me all in the name of helping. I even have people pass me off calls. The last one I did I charged the guy $400 and tossed the guy that gave me the call $100.

well i finaly get to read this post as i heard about it being out there... i think the charge is totaly suitable, just cause you never know what your going to brake on a pull job... its one thing if you are out playing with the other guys and need a pull, but if someone calls me for a pull and i don,t know them well thats different....
now i may seem "two face", just because there has been times when i have called on some of yous for help and yous have come, but if anything had happened to your rigs i would hope yous would know that i would do all i can to help fix your rigs

I just talked to my neighbour about this(he drives tow truck) and he said they had to call about a off-road recovery for a guy once(cause they wouldn't do it and neither would any other tow company around)....he said the off-road recovery company charges 400 per hour from the time they leave the shop So...100 bux...yeah...that's cheap
