welcome to the site, lots of guys in your area.
What date did you win it? and have you sent the EUC in yet? First time you should expect a month or so, after that you usually have two weeks to go get it.

Get your EUC sent in ASAP if it's at Indiantown, and then get it off the base/lot asap when the EUC clears - I had an issue with parts going missing there.
I used H&S Towing in Annville, PA to go remove it off the GL lot. They stored it for me until they could bring it down. They were cheap ($150) for the on base recovery, but a little pricey on the tow. Try Uship.com for the haul to you.

My EUC is at Battle Creek so we will see when this sale clears sounds like Westfolk has a promising proposition.

HeadWizard,
To be real nosey...roughly what did you pay for the overall call, hook, and tow from the Gap and do you recall their daily storage charge?

While it was too much, it was probably fair in todays economy. They charged $150 to go on base, recover and haul to their lot. They charged me zero to store the truck for almost 3 months while we waited for them to use my truck to fill an open load south. They flatbedded it down and charged me an extra $600, or right at $5/mile. It was a non-runner due to parts being "borrowed" off it while still on the base before they could go get it.medlog said:

YUP, I agree. But I'm still into the truck for less than $2k and it's a winch truck and had a pile of chains in it, several new tires and a convoy light. Needs a compressor and some alternator brackets.medlog said:
There was no way I could get the truck off the base by the pick-up date, so I had to do that part. I did the math on towing it back with 1 of my other deuces and by the time I bought fuel and expenses for a helper for the day, it would have cost me $350, plus me taking a day off work. Not to mention what it might have cost when Murphy showed up. All in all, not much difference in paying someone.
