trying to find some side work since there isnt many people fixing their cars right now. figured i could put my truck to work for me. does anyone need something towed or hauled somewhere in so cal? i can tow heavy tag trailers as well as 5ers and goosenecks.

anyone?? shoot me a PM

I've seen a couple posts about people not fixing their cars right now; I don't understand this? Fixing is definitely cheaper than buying new? Are you a mechanic or body guy? I'm just trying to understand whats going on out there.

auto service is drying up here at dealers..if aint warranty dont fix it is a common reply from car owners now a days and its understandable the economy is hard on everyone...

My guess is they are doing it themselves to save money or have just decided to drive it till the wheels fall off.

yep sucks out there for sure right now. if it isn't free don't fix my car. hearing that every day more and more. and paycheck shows it also.

man john i hope things pick up soon for all of us!!!

yea, its getting rough. im a tech for VW and alot of people are trading their older cars in for new ones that they can lease real cheap. like has been said, we are hearing alot of 'if it isnt warranty, dont fix it'. if ya think about it tho, it comes down to either fixing their cars and not making a house payment or make the house payment and keep driving an effed up car for now. brakes metal to metal? ill keep driving it for now

yep too bad they don't do away with emissions testing and start doing safety checks.

might at least get some work out of that.

but then nothing like a 28 hour pay check for half a month also.

need out of this business for one thing.

sorry

might be needing something towed a few times this winter.

gotta give a big thanks to Mike330R for sendin a nice lil tow over my way. had the pleasure of meeting mr. beckley and towing his new digs home to boulder creek, ca (just north of santa cruz) from rancho cucamonga. not the heaviest trailer ive pulled, but definately the biggest. the dmax had no problems with it, towed great! it was about a 500 mile tow up there and then was able to take highway 1 from monteray down to san luis obispo on the way home. beautiful drive. total miles driven this weekend: 1,055 round trip

much thanks to mike and jeff

With the tall front end on that big red trailer, it looks like you're towing a barn backwards!

Hey Steve maybe we can get him to haul your trailer out to G

I'll have my truck back in less than a week.

That's good news!!!! Did you take it up there this weekend?

Yes, Mike towed it up there Sat. That was an adventure.

yea i know, when i saw it at first, was like 'wtf is up with the design of that thing?' somethin like 13'6" tall up there!

You didn't pass under any really low bridges, obviously. I wonder what the lowest bridge height is?

I've seen some ridiculously low (and narrow) overpasses back on the east coast, obviously left over from before cars were invented. Back there, you'd have to stick to he main fwys, there are a lot of small roads and narrow lanes that have never been upgraded.

the lowest overpass that i recall seeing was somethin like 14'4"

if you can get my quad to G on vets day I will pay what you think is fair

John, any inside pic's of that trailer?

oh crap, i just realized i spaced out on this, sorry frank

no mike, i gots no interior shots

still available...

PM sent

end of season, anyone need their rigs towed home?? how bout your boat towed to the river?? im available most weekends and can tow most any trailer, have 3 diff size tow balls, a 5th wheel and gooseneck hitches. no prob if the trailer doesnt have functional lighting, i have a magnetic lighting system as well. im also a very safe and careful driver

John
