Ok. I don't know what wrong with the truck itself. That's another story.
Anyhow. It won't start. I'm in big bear. It's snowing and raining. I call Ford. I have a three year unlimited mile warranty they added for the new motor. They say my roadside assistance is gone, but if it's a motor problem they will reimburse me. So they give me a great rate. 175 dollars from Big Bear to Redlands Ford. Cool. I give them my CC. Set it up. Done.
Guy shows up at like 1am three hours later. Two Vatos tattooed from head to toe with a flat bed. What do I care. The fucked is insured. I figure the worst is I never see it again. He says man it's raining. Cold. Etc etc. he will probably drop it off when they open in the am. Ok. What do I care? I'll call Redlands in the am and see if they got it.
I wake up late. I'm tired as fuck. I notice a voicemail. Listen to it. It's the dispatch for the towing company. She says I need to call if I want my truck delivered to the dealer. I'm like wtf????
So I call. She says I owe one nights storage. And a tow out from their yard to the Ford dealership. I say where's your yard??? She says Victorville and the tow out is 220 dollars plus storage.
Are you fucking kidding me?? Why didn't you tell me that last night? I would have called in the morning and had you take it straight to the dealer!!!!! I tell her she's scamming me. She's like sorry. When you want to give us a cc we can run it to the dealer for you.
Tow Masters is the name of this shithole btw.
So I call Ford. I ask for a supervisor right away. Explain the "scam" and that I paid in full the night before to have the truck delivered to the dealer. She's like I'll make some calls. You aren't incurring any extra costs.
At the end of the day it gets delivered to Redlands but not until 2:30. So I lost an entire day and I'm stuck here waiting for my truck.
Rant over. Don't trust Tow Masters.
