I was just looking through their trucks for sale and those are not good deals at all. You can find clean rust free trucks that run in this area for under 1 k sometimes

Cant find any rust free or trucks with minor rust for under 1K around. I probably find a running truck with minor rust spots for $1500-$2000 depending if it 2wd or 4wd.

I agree. I'll take a little rust on mine and buy them at 1/4 to 1/3 of those prices, and spend $100 or so in parts and my time to make it my own.

They are priced high for a lot of areas, but priced just right for the area this guy sells the trucks in. He sells all of them.

I'm thinking the high price is indicative of the trucks generally being a "survivor" truck that is almost all original AND rust free. It's worth it to those people that pay extra to get one with all original stuff on it

I"m doing much better now working for this different tow company.

That's great news. I had a girl first too, then my son. Although I was hoping for a boy first, I am so glad it worked out like it did, My baby girl followed me around with her Little Tikes shopping cart, carrying my tools in it. So funny, she'd lay down beside me under a car and bang on the bottom of the car with a screwdriver as if she was helping. Got video of it somewhere. Now it makes me want to find it. She'll be a daddy's girl, just hope she stays a daddy's girl. Best of health wishes to the wife and baby. You guys will all do just great. :waytogo: :baby:

Aww..that's a cute story about your little one. That's awesome bro, looking forward to making good memories like that. My wife wants a son too, and already told me we can try not long after my daughters born, so they can be close, but I think she might change her tune after the baby gets here... LOL

Glad to hear you got a better gig... it sucks working somewhere that you don't want to be.
Thank you for the well wishes... ill keep you posted on the latest..
