Now I said I would notice these things because I know what I'm doing. Your average jersey tow guy might just think your truck is extra heavy. but I wouldn't worry about that with a company that does private property impounds, especially not the one I work for. I'd be more weary of AAA and cities that have they're own towing division. AAA is notorious for inexperienced drivers with little to no mechanical knowledge, and city tow trucks can say "well the damage we cause is your fault because you shouldn't have parked there to begin with". I have no such luxury

Thats why I stick to the parking garages when I am in Philly. I dont give people reasons to tow my truck anyway... But you never know. Now Im tempted to slap a big AWD sticker on the front and back. haha
