140 miles, are you sure? A few weeks ago my car broke down in the South Hills, and I had it towed to OT. It was about 118 miles from there, and I probably could have had the driver shave a few miles off by not sticking exclusively to highways. That's a little further than I hoped. Even w/my 100 miles of free AAA towing, I had to pay over $50. Drive time for me is about 2 hours each way. That was late on a Sunday afternoon, and Tom got the job done that same evening, even scavenging some parts off one of the SVXen he had there! You're not going to get that kind of amazing service anywhere else!
Even at my local family mechanic's, my car would have been out of service for at least half a week.
