Yes, but did he trip you??
Funny you should bring that up. I towed an Austin Healey 3000 today and
that guy knew how to tip. Not telling how much but I can take the
family out for a real nice meal with what he gave me. I asked him if he
was aware of what he had just handed cause I thought he may have taken
from the wrong pocket. I got ten dollars in quarters, as a tip, from a
Jaguar XJ6 owner today also. Some of the tightest (cheapest) people I
know are MG owner but then again almost all the people I know are MG
owners. I know, their not cheap, their just broke, right? I have towed
many MGs and can not remember ever receiving a tip from the owners. I
did receive a generous token of appreciation from Ben Russet for the
help I provided him with in buying his MGB. I have an MGB tow on
Monday, we'll see what happens.
