Got stuck today on a ride from San Fernando to Venture.
Blowing fuses for the fuel pump.
Called AAA at 12:30 pm from Main Street in Ventura. You have to have a flatbed truck to tow, ok, you have to wait till 4pm. What the F***.
Send a regular truck, sorry it will damage the car. It hasn’t happened in the past when I’ve had it towed.

5pm on the phone with a supervisor, we don’t have the equipment, tow company said nobody wants to drive 50 miles to LA from Ventura.

They found a driver but doesn’t take passengers! That’s ok with you right? FU!

We can have someone there at 8am Sunday morning!

WTF never had an issue like this after 13 years a member, will not be a member for 14.

I counted on them being there, crawled under there car, found the problem, fixed in 10 minutes, Saturday night insurance jobs are to important to miss out on.

Well, fortunately for us, my brother had loaded about 8 bottles of water into the car before we embarked on our trip. Additionally, while we were stranded, a nice CHP officer stopped to check on us. He then went up to the next gas station, about 5 miles up the road and brought us back 2 ice cold 1/2 gallon jugs of water. I paid him and thanked him.

I made sure to write to the CHP Commissioner to let her know what a great officer she had and I was officially thanking him for his service. She acknowledged my letter with one of her own. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
