Draft “D-Day” Day

My experience with the tow-truck driver and the owner of Treat’s Garage & Towing was professional. They gave me clear instructions and communicated the exact location of my vehicle, a 2006 Nissan Armada that had a rear-driver-side blowout while I was traveling south. This was my first experience on the New Jersey Turnpike, and I was shocked to learn about the state law that restricts insurance-backed towing, third-party towing, or any alternative that doesn’t involve the Turnpike’s contracted company. Although the pricing feels excessive, Treat’s Garage & Towing is operating within the system that New Jersey has put in place. We cannot blame Treat’s for taking advantage of the capitalist structure they are legally allowed to operate in. If we disagree with the rates or the policies, the real solution is to contact our local, state, and federal officials to change the law. This is one of the problems with unchecked capitalism: it rarely serves the employee or the general public. Profit becomes the primary driver, and overly restrictive laws on the New Jersey Turnpike prevent competition, often hurting consumers. If you want fair pricing and towing options that act in the public interest—not just for profit—then urge your representatives to reform these laws and put reasonable caps on tow costs.

We drove one hour to buy a truck from these people. Over the phone and online, the son told us the price was $63,000. We agreed on that price and went there. However, when we arrived, his father came and said he would not sell the truck for less than$67,000. We explained that we had already agreed on $63,000 with his son, but they refused to honor that price. We tried to negotiate, but they did not accept. This was a very disappointing and unprofessional experience. Please be careful if you decide to do business with them. We truly regret wasting our time.

We had a flat tire on the NJTPK with our 1 year old baby in the car! Adam arrived in less than 20 mins and swiftly got everyone safely in his truck before loading our car on his flatbed. We were at the tire shop in no time at all. Thank you Adam for rescuing us and prioritizing our safety. Great to meet you brother!
