6/29/2014 Tow My Car, Comb Ridge , UT - About 100 feet tow out my car from sandy spot to stable dirt road that cost me $900...Ouch! There is no tow company in the town of Bulff, a means tow truck came from another town, I spend all day for waiting, wha't a wasting time and money. I am sure I won't go back to Bulff area any time soon.
