I have some resentment built up towards towing companies, through no one's fault but my own. When I see a towing truck I cringe like they're the cops and I have a pound of cut meth in the trunk. So Advantage Towing was a nice change of pace.

They came when I called AAA for a tow, but Victor, the guy behind the wheel, diagnosed that I just needed a jump. He was right (at least, temporarily). He also let me know that they would come out for $115 and change out a new battery for me if Id' like. I passed at the time being, but after getting to work and my battery failing once again (not to mention the distinct smell of sulfur protruding from it), made an appointment.

A couple guys were out about an hour later and met me in the parking lot. They were friendly, funny, and humored me relentlessly. The main guy - Phil, or X-ray, which is apparently what people call him - was training a new guy who was getting a hang of the ropes. They answered all my questions and let me clamp the generator's clamps onto the new battery. They printed up a receipt with the results of a starter test and an alternator test (to make sure the battery is actually the problem). The battery comes with a 6 year warranty.

Given, I probably could have spent some time and gotten away with replacing my battery for much less than $115, but with the added convenience of come-to-you service and a decent warranty, I think it's well worth the cash.

Well done, Advantage Towing! I will speak your praises until the inevitable day that you'll be towing off my car without my explicit permission. Because that's just my luck.

I think this company used to be called A & M Towing. Must have a new owner now or something. Anyway, I fully recommend these guys if you have AAA or are in the Ocean Beach area. Super clean trucks and drivers, even the guy who answered the phone was awesome and knew exactly where I was at!!!

I called A & M 24 Hour Towing & Recovery Service Specialists to get my car towed , they sent a driver to tow my vehicle.He arrived in the cleaniest tow truck I have ever seen, and very well groomed and was dressed like a professional, he took care of my car and towed me to my mechanic, I paid the amount they asked for, but would of paid double for the great service I received, I will recommend A & M 24 Hour Towing to anybody in San Diego, Ca!!!
