Gotta Love it....
So I just towed a 08 Mercedes ML550 4motion. because its AWD it had to be put on dollies, on top of that the GVWR is 6250 making it a $200 impound plus a $50 fee for the dollies. I had taken pictures of the vehicle prior to tow to document the dollie use and show any damage, but my camera was low on battery so I took general shots. When the owners showed up he tried claiming that bug splats and road debris scratches on the front of the truck were caused by me towing it...from the rear. He ended up calling the cops and yelling at me and generally being a belligerent *******, until he paid. Funny part is when I was taking the drivers license info, it turned out he's my landlord's (who I've known a while from my job and have very good standing with) uncle, and had he not been such a douchebag, I'd have cut $100 off the price. the real kicker is the genius parked directly next to the 4ftx4t Rodeway inn sign that says after the both closes you have to go to the motel for a pass, and a 2ftx4ft sign that says "Unauthorized Vehicles Will Be Towed".
