    He said his credit card machine is down until Monday. We as business owners know that’s ########. He can accept credit cards a million ways. The only reason I’m going along with him is because he is Eastern European and they from my experience are some trucking nuclear engineers.

    He could park his wrecker somewhere else. Like having your business out of an apartment but your semi in truck parking. I will be meeting him in 25 mins.

    I hope he works out well for you. Good luck!

    Just curious, is your truck closer to Ash Springs/Alamo, or Lund?

    He did not pick me up in a wrecker but a Michigan license plate road side truck. We went to the truck he hooked up his computer and no codes according to him. He tried a bunch of stuff to make the engine unstuck and didn’t work. His conclusion was I need a wrecker and my engine is blown. I can’t go by his word as he was a scam artist. I tried a wrecker company and they were insurance money hungry. I will wait until Monday to deal with all this with my company. Please see attached photos

    Wrecker wants to charge me $6500 to go 120 miles and then wants to bill my insurance for “clean up”
