Windows are probably generally safe since they are easy to clean, but if it damage the vehicle, then it doesn't matter if the owner of the vehicle was parked where they shouldn't be (because it isn't legal to damage someone else's property). As well, having the sticker affixed firmly doesn't really benefit in any way (unless you are worried about randos coming along and removing them for kicks). Anyhow, I live in Texas. Most places just call and have the tow done. Nothing is affixed to the cars. (I work at a university campus, so I see tows daily during the school year.)

On it's face this is wise advice. However, you need to understand that there are places that almost make it impossible to park legally, have hidden/confusing signage that basically baits people into falling for the trap. I am not saying this place is like that, but it might be.

I can understand that! Where I am from it's the tourists, the snowbirds, and the transplants that have pushed out all the locals. They have no respect for anyone or anything. They would be just as upset if people behaved this way in their town. They act like the locals couldn't last if it wasn't for them and their money. My family has lived in the same area since the 1830s. These people and their actions are a big part of why we finally left. Hospitality only stretches so far.

I wonder how these people would react if I came to their home and parked in the middle of their front lawn and my excuse was, "I didn't know. There wasn't a sign." Do you think they would be accommodating? How about if I just parked in front of their driveway and blocked its access?

[@TheCobruhAlienat0r]

To be fair, it probably should have just been counted as one unit since they were attached and he didn't have to make two trips or send two trucks out for it. I think it should have been full price for the truck and half price for the trailer if Jeff wants to argue that it was difficult to get it out of the parking out and to make sure it got back to the lot in one piece.

[@63076topher]

​@@TheCobruhAlienat0rCan you count a TRUCK is one thing a TRAILER is a second if they tow two cars at once on a truck should they not charge the second picked up because they charged the first? It is simple DO NOT park on private business property without being a customer of that business.

[@TheCobruhAlienat0r]

@@63076topher Yes, obviously I can count. But when they're attached there isn't that much more work to haul them together. Insurance covers the trailer and the contents when it's attached to a vehicle because it's considered part of the vehicle they insured. But when the trailer isn't attached then they won't cover it unless you have extra coverage for the trailer.

Come on you have to admit you like that grandpa Tyson there.. it's probably his high light of his golden years.. he have a big story on how he tamed Jeff at the nursing home.. LoL 😅

[@scottmichaels12]

@michaelfularz1055 Yeah, he looked real tough taking his jacket off with 3 guys standing in front of him.

[@melindaflick631]

People like that take the fun out of things.

[@Sockmonkey3940]

theyre gross

[@diaMetrical]

Eventually, the respected Generation will get rolled and nostalgic vehicles cancelled due to poor fuel consumption and emissions. Along with DollyWood cancelling a recent car event, more to come soon as downtrend profit spirals...Due to Jeff's poor de-escalation methods and odd spastic reactions, it may be clear the reason local/cty cops leave him out of rotation.

[@blackman10970]

Folks out there being strong and wrong. Glad you stood your ground.

[@kayfurlano1462]

The old man taking off his jacket to square off with Jeff was comical. Don’t do it Jeff, it would have been elder abuse! Lol

[@Whatamidoinghere262]

I’m surprised he didn’t dislocate his shoulder doing that.

[@Sockmonkey3940]

right! theres no fool like an old fool

[@johnme7049]

Not when the old guy starts it.

[@theresabundy4002]

Yeah but the old guy did have some gumption for his age.🤣🤣🤣

[@SR416a]

Poor old dear, couldn’t get his arm out of the sleeve. Bless him.

[@2ndchance431]

In many cases, the old saying: "Can't fix stupid" applies to most of these tows!

I'm 65 years old. I spent 20 years in the USN from 77 to 97, driven all over this country from East to West and North to South, been stationed in and visited other countries, and up until a few years ago, routinely made the trip from NC to Texas and back to visit friends during the Christmas season. And never in all that time, visiting all those places and running into different people, did I ever feel in any real danger or the need to have some means of defending myself, other than using my words, my brains, and my feet to avoid trouble in the first place. But the way things have gotten over just the past few years, even just shopping in the local area, I now feel the need to at least have one of those small keychain pepper spray dispensers in my pocket, just in case I run into someone that won't leave well enough alone. Back in the 60's when I was a kid, I'd ride my bicycle up and down our 2 mile road all day long without a care. Now, I wouldn't dare walking past the mailbox without having my cell phone and pepper spray along.

[@ValetaBarger]

I've been solo traveling as you said north to south, east to west since July 23. I carry several forms of protection, the least lethal of which is a Taser, and have a CC permit for them all. Thankfully I've never felt the need to use any of them but as you said, this world is changing and not for the better. I never thought at 65 I'd have the attitude of better safe than sorry but it is what it is. 😢

[@dependablepaul]

Yeah, hard to believe I felt safer being three sheets to the wind while on liberty in Mombasa, Kenya than I do being stone cold sober walking downtown in any major US city. That being said, I treasure the memories I have with my shipmates while overseas. USN 80-84

[@ValetaBarger]

​@dependablepaul my first real love was stationed on the USS Mullinix. Loved that navy man until he decided a girl closer to where he was stationed was better😢. But I got over it and still hold a special place in my heart for him today. He'd be totally shocked that I'm armed to the teeth. 😊😮

[@Odd_Interaction]

@@dependablepaulI feel safer in Olongapo City PI than I do in the states. Maybe it’s because they are to busy working to come up with reasons to start thinking they are entitled.

[@Bryan-Hensley]

Stay away from Gatlinburg and pigeon forge. They only care about getting your money one way or another..the police wrote over 1,000 tickets. That is the whole purpose of the rod runs.

[@marksummers666]

lol was not expecting homeboy cruising through on the jazzy scooter at 15:11 🤣

[@SimpleManGuitars1973]

A guy wound up getting killed at the rod run this year. Apparently a car opened a door to get out on the side of the road and didn't realize a guy was on a scooter coming down the road and the guy on the scooter wound up getting killed in the accident. The rod runs are a total pain for local people.

[@ritagarrison8315]

Yes they are and a pain for tourist

[@sandigrace2271]

That's really sad.

[@sandragula4863]

As long as I’ve lived here, not been a fan of rod run. Each year things get worse. How on earth can any of this mayhem be fun? Bless you guys for trying to help bring some order to the rod run chaos.

[@ritagarrison8315]

I don't even live there and I agree with you

[@MichaelWilliams-vb6wr]

That guy was super cool and understandable didint mind it one bit as long as he got it back Great work guys

[@ronaldheitzman6446]

You did an outstanding job you have more restraint than I do

[@idadho]

Jeff, How about putting a waiting shack outside the gate? A place for people to wait out of the sun and weather would be nice. "We'll be at the yard in 30 to 45 minutes. We have a courtesy waiting spot with a roof and bench where you can wait."

[@markflowers1573]

I was just hoping that bear wasn't going to try and get into the white car. 😢 That would have been a sad thing

[@JacquiBee88]

I was holding my breath on that one...That car was so nice. I was saying to myself "Of course they rolled up the windows!!!"

[@thisoldbelair]

Lol i own a classic car that has sentimental value myself. I won’t even leave my garage door open when i’m not out there. “That car means the world to me.” He said. Then proceeded to leave it illegally parked unattended in a Walgreens parking lot with the windows rolled down?? Foolish.

[@KileReeves]

Why do I like your videos so much? I can't figure it out. I've been binge watching them for a day and a half now.

[@jamesbigham9036]

You guys are the best at what you do. I don't know why people think they can park where they want then get mad at you because you were called to tow away the vehicles. If they wouldn't have parked somewhere they are not suppose to they would not get towed. Common sense to me park in a safe place and don't park on private property.

[@taisa1320]

Love you guys at Everything Autos, nicest people ever!! ❤️ From Canada ❤️❤️

[@dw-bn5ex]

Man I get it. I been going to Gatlinburg for 50 years. Last fall all the drift cars were there. Took over all the parking lots at restaurants and stores. Roared past the hotel all night and I'm sure the rod run is even worse. Thanks to all the moonshine in Gatlinburg, fist fights and puke all over the sidewalks was enough for me. No more, good luck with the towing.

[@mechanictaft4848]

I left there just because of how bad it us

[@MichaelN-m6n]

I love how the bear was like “nah that’s a classic I’m not scratching that up.”

[@terryosz8458]

It's great that you record it all
