The REAL Jeep assist - Post your pic

[Hoobz]

Mine is nothing like the previous few.

Helped a workmate who got stuck today. Bad timing with rain on a worksite made the fresh drive a quagmire today.

Yes, the line is attached to the tow ball. Yes we now it's bad, but it was def not a hard pull. The onlookers in the pic were well clear during the actual pull. I hid behind the door, peeking through a gap.

The towel line dampner is soaking wet.



The drive rutted up real bad.

Workmate showing the depth in one place.

Brick delivery forklift ruts.

Did my first "Jeep Assist" today. A poor old guy with a flat battery in the Bunnings carpark. I didn't have any cables so couldn't help at first but ended up just buying some whilst in there.

When I came out he was trying to get help from a RACQ van that had shown up to help another car 2 spots up from him.... the guy refused as he wasn't a member. Seriously??? I can understand they're a business etc but it's a jump start not a engine re-build, why not help him out and gain a potentual future member?

Pulled up behind RACQ, gave them a dirty look and the guy a jump... 2 second job.

i guess its a bit like showing up to the movies and asking for a free seat seeing the movie is not sold out and its going to be playing anyway ,it wont cost them anything but would make you want to pay for the next one ...... maybe.

RACQ actually do alot of good care flight choppers ect unlike some others that exist .

Well done Mikzor - I bet if the guy with the flat battery was a hot female, the RACQ would have helped in a flash.

I jumped started 3 cars in a row one night after a concert. The last couple thought I had been hired by the venue to make sure everyone got out OK

RACQ sponsor the chopper. Same as Westpac and the Sydney one. The actual chopper and service are owned by overseas companies...

And they are a company that advertise their attention to service and how they are there to support the community... but apparently only for a fee??
