A tow operator for over 25 years I saw things that would destroy some working for Several State and local police departments motorcycles split in 3 by a bridge embankment and the rider being taken away in 10 body bags! Trucks that hit concrete light poles were the drivers lower extremities were still embedded under the dash when I had to haul it to a location to extract the rest of him, that just scratches the surface. I have over 1 million miles under my belt driving these medium duty trucks with 0 accidents had hours worse than a ER Dr in call 24/7 one day a week off and one weekend a month off I averaged 75 hours a week but in the winter there were weeks I never got home to my son I had to cat nap in the truck between calls, I used to own a small business selling and installing Video Surveillance and Burglary monitoring systems when I could no. Longer handle the life towing anymore. So now you have some of my details and some bragging and sarcasm I had to let out.saboken wrote:I just had to read my original post to see if there was anything I said to get the insurance thing pounded into me? But I failed to see it? I wasn't expecting this here since it seemed like the people here were mature and understanding again people chiming in on unrelated issues even after I try to say nicely that's not what I am asking and want to stay on the subject. I have LEO's in the family that can inform me about laws that I trust before a stranger I will never meet! Again I have resisted the New York sarcasm that I want to unleash real bad because of how my question was being answered but I moved away from all that in the 80s this place has a lot of good information but when people start pounding unrelated issues into a subject it gets well "sarcasm withheld" anyoing and could drive new members AWAY I didn't come here to be treated like a moron nor to have my intelligence tested.
I was doing a litter research for rental tow vehicles, I found Enterprise Truck Rentals is now renting 3/4 and 1 Ton trucks for personal use, at a affordable rate, they list
(3/4 Ton Pickup Truck SIERRA SLT 2500 CREW CAB OR SIMILAR)
for the 3/4
and
(1 Ton Pickup Truck 4X4 CREW CAB 169.5 IN. WB)
for the 1 ton. Has anyone here had experience renting these truck for towing a TT? The site says towing capable but extra fees may apply? I need to haul a 32'TT From NJ to SC but my tow rig might not be up to the task, if you have any experience with these are the brake controllers built in? Do they have standard 7way connections? They are closed until Monday and I just don't know what to ask I don't want to scare them away because I know some of the companys have employees that havery no idea what's going on they are their only to collect your money and hand you keys, that's my experience with the car rental anyway, any suggestions on how to deal with them? This will save me a fortune getting my new home home without risking my daily driver, I did post this question in a simular way in a running conversation, I was hoping to reach out to a wider audience. Thanks
And sorry if there are a lot of punctuation errors and misspelling my tablet is on its way out and does weird things I miss when typing.
