They would not tow me in Texas last month, i'm in a springer and it was empty.
I've been towed in Texas twice, one time loaded, one time empty. I've been towed twice in Mississippi, once in Georgia, once in Kentucky, twice in Michigan, all empty. Once in Canada while loaded. They balked once in Texas and once in Georgia upon hearing the word "Freightliner", so I've learned to tell them it's a Dodge Sprinter. When they've still balked, my response is,
"It's a cargo van, not a truck. It's been towed several times before and it's never been a problem. Look it up. It's been towed on flatbeds and by tow hooks. If this is suddenly a problem, then I need to speak to a supervisor to find out why." Never been refused a tow.
I've also never offered up that I'm loaded, nor have I ever been asked.
Yes, that's a lot of towing. My Sprinter hates its own belt tensioner.
