Got stuck today on a ride from San Fernando to Venture.
Blowing fuses for the fuel pump.
Called AAA at 12:30 pm from Main Street in Ventura. You have to have a flatbed truck to tow, ok, you have to wait till 4pm. What the F***.
Send a regular truck, sorry it will damage the car. It hasn’t happened in the past when I’ve had it towed.

5pm on the phone with a supervisor, we don’t have the equipment, tow company said nobody wants to drive 50 miles to LA from Ventura.

They found a driver but doesn’t take passengers! That’s ok with you right? FU!

We can have someone there at 8am Sunday morning!

WTF never had an issue like this after 13 years a member, will not be a member for 14.

I counted on them being there, crawled under there car, found the problem, fixed in 10 minutes, Saturday night insurance jobs are to important to miss out on.

I don't have AAA. I have never been a member. I have a truck and a trailer. If the 914 breaks, we get the trailer and bring it home.

I do the same for all my friends with 914s too.

Now if the tow vehicle breaks down, I have to call a tow service. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

Unfortunately both Maryland and Colorado are outside my tow range. But if you break down on a trip with me, I will get you home.
