    There's a group of women in Georgia that will remove boots and for a reasonable charge.

    That brings us to Boot Baby and Boot Sheisty – two women currently causing a stir in Atlanta by unlocking boots using keys that are perfectly legal. Of course, it's not quite as simple as that. They are the Boot Girls, and their story begins in April.

    Good point, he should go get his truck polished and washed and keep the receipts handy to bill the would be extortion operation for the repairs required after they damaged his truck with their clamp on junk!
