Great people! Got me towed, trailer and all! Guy was cool, I think his name was Jason. Cool dude.
I parked my sleeper cab in a gravel lot in the middle of the night. Of course it was the in the only spot where water pools, and I got stuck. Merl's was called, they came out, assessed the situation and got me out of there quickly. Great guy, and was very friendly for an early Sunday service call. Professionalism at its finest!
