Towin’ Joe and I were out of the shop today visiting one of the kids at Oklahoma Wesleyan University!

The guys stayed behind and held down the fort while Joe got a little taste of college life.

Somewhere along the way, Joe decided he was going to stay. He even asked if they’d consider changing their mascot from an Eagle to a camel.

Unfortunately for Joe, we came home without an acceptance letter.

I’d like to thank the guys for holding down the fort while we were gone, but something tells me they’re the ones who should be thanking ME for getting Joe out of their hair for the day!

WE’VE OFFICIALLY ENTERED THAT TIME OF YEAR IN OKLAHOMA…

Where the weather forecast is about as unpredictable as the Sooners. One minute things look promising, and the next you’re wondering what just happened. 🤦🏽‍♀️

You leave home in a hoodie, need a coat by lunch, and you’re back in shorts by supper.

Poor Towin’ Joe isn’t used to these cooler temperatures. He’s already dressed like Randy from A Christmas Story.

He’s got so many layers on, the only thing he’s hooking up is an extension cord to a space heater. If he falls over, we’re calling another towing company. That recovery is above our pay grade!

Chances are, your vehicle is a little confused too!

Before Oklahoma remembers it’s supposed to be winter, let’s check a few things:

Battery: Struggling now? Cold weather won’t help.

Antifreeze: Water and wishful thinking won’t protect your engine.

Tires: Check your pressure and tread before slick roads arrive.

Heater & Defroster: Make sure they work before you need them!

Wipers & Fluids: Replace worn blades and check your washer fluid.

Belts, Hoses & Brakes: Squealing, leaking, or grinding? Don’t ignore it.

Take advantage of this nice weather and get ahead of winter!

A little maintenance now beats turning the key 15 times on a freezing morning, hoping your car changes its mind.

We’d rather see you drive into the shop than have Joe waddle out to rescue you!

Well, that’s one way to start a Monday.

Nobody wakes up on Monday morning thinking, “You know what would really make today better? A ride on the back of a tow truck.”

But vehicles have a funny way of picking the most inconvenient time to act up.

The good news? At Budget, we don’t just haul your problems around town. We can fix them, too!

From engine trouble and transmissions to brakes, electrical issues, and everything in between, we’ve got you covered.

And don’t forget! We offer discounted local towing when you have your repairs done at our shop.

Because having your vehicle break down is bad enough. Getting hit with a towing bill AND a repair bill just adds insult to injury.

One call. One shop. We’ll take it from there.

So your vehicle breaks down, and you hop on Facebook looking for a tow.

And here comes some random dude in the comments…

“Hit me up. I can do it for $50.”

Well, hold on there, Dale Earnhardt.

Before you hand over your keys, we’ve got a few questions.

If this guy drops your vehicle off his trailer, are we still being a good neighbor? Does your insurance cover this circus, or are you about to meet Mayhem personally?

Here’s the thing…

That $50 tow could turn into the most expensive $50 you’ve ever spent.

We’ve seen what happens when somebody decides a tow rope is good enough to get the job done.

Let’s just say the vehicle made it down the road… but the front bumper didn’t.

And here’s where things can get REALLY expensive.

Just because somebody has insurance on their pickup doesn’t necessarily mean your vehicle is covered while they’re towing it.

If something goes wrong, who’s paying?

Your buddy? Random Facebook guy? His insurance? Yours?

Different insurance policies cover different situations, and not every policy includes coverage for towing someone else’s vehicle.

Your own insurance may help in certain situations, but coverage depends on your policy and what happened.

That’s something worth finding out BEFORE you’re stuck with a repair bill nobody expected.

Suddenly that $50 bargain isn’t looking so cheap, is it?

Now, we’re not saying you have to call Budget.

We’re saying make sure whoever you call has the proper equipment, any required licensing, and appropriate insurance coverage for the job.

AND BEFORE YOU PAY FOR A TOW, CHECK WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE!

Your auto insurance may already include roadside assistance.

Some Life360 plans offer roadside assistance for members of your circle.

Even some phone carriers offer roadside assistance options!

A few dollars a month could save you a whole lot of money down the road.

AND HERE’S SOMETHING WORTH KNOWING ABOUT BUDGET!

We offer discounted local towing when we perform your vehicle repairs!

Already have a mechanic you trust? No problem!

We tow to OTHER repair shops in town, too!

Just because we have a repair shop doesn’t mean your vehicle has to come to ours.

We believe in giving customers options, not expensive surprises.

So the next time somebody on Facebook says…

“HIT ME UP!”

You might want to ask yourself…

What kind of HIT am I going to take if this goes sideways?

Stopped by the shop this morning and well… looks like Joe was busy last night.

I gotta say, this is the most work we’ve seen out of him all week.

Apparently, he decided to carve pumpkins. Most people go with ghosts, witches, or scary faces.

Not Joe. He went straight for the six things that can ruin a perfectly good day.

Now, if we could just get him to put this much effort into his actual job, we’d be getting somewhere.

Happy Halloween from Towin’ Joe! 🎃

And if your dashboard starts looking like his pumpkin collection, give us a call!

LIFE’S A GARDEN, DIG IT!

Well, it’s Halloween Eve, and Towin’ Joe has decided he’s going as Joe Dirt this year.

He’s been walking around the shop all week in that mullet like he really thinks he’s something.

Now he says he’s wearing that getup to tonight’s football game.

I told him absolutely not.

He asked what was wrong with it.

Joe, you look like you came in for an oil change in 1990 and never left.

Of course, the guys aren’t helping. Somebody told him he looked good, and now there’s no living with him.

He says I’m just jealous.

At this point, if you see a camel with a mullet at the football game tonight, just pretend you don’t know where he works. We’re trying to run a respectable business here.

Quick Halloween reminder!

Saturday night, slow down and keep an eye out for all the little trick-or-treaters! They’ll be focused on filling those candy buckets, so let’s make sure everyone gets home safely!

Speaking of candy buckets, Joe’s already got his ready.

I told him he’s a little old to be trick-or-treating.

He said, “Candy doesn’t have an age limit.”

Well, apparently neither does foolishness.

So if a camel with a mullet shows up at your door, go ahead and give him a piece of candy.

Just PLEASE don’t tell him he looks good. We’ve still got to work with him Monday.

Happy Halloween from all of us at Budget! 🎃

Some of y’all are driving around with enough warning lights on your dashboard to land an airplane.

Check engine light? Been on for months.

Tire pressure light? That’s practically a permanent fixture.

Another warning light? You’re just praying it’ll go off on its own.

And listen, sometimes the Lord works in mysterious ways…

BUT WHEN THAT WHOLE DASHBOARD LIGHTS UP, YOU NEED TO COME SEE US! 👀

We admire the faith. We really do. But hope isn’t a diagnostic tool, and those lights aren’t just there for decoration.

Let Budget figure out what’s going on before your vehicle decides you’re walking!

FRIENDLY REMINDER!

It’s Wednesday. We’ve made it halfway through the week, and some of these vehicles are acting like they’ve already put in their two weeks’ notice.

Grinding brakes?
Check engine light?
A/C blowing whatever temperature it feels like?
A mysterious noise that conveniently disappears the second you pull into the shop?

We’ve heard it all. And unlike your vehicle, we’re actually interested in communicating.

Here’s something else worth knowing…

NEED A TOW AND A REPAIR? WE’VE GOT YOU COVERED!

Nobody wakes up excited about paying for a tow AND a repair bill. We get it. That’s why when you have your vehicle towed to Budget Auto Repair and we perform the repairs, we’ll give you a discount on your towing!

We take care of more than your average daily driver!

Some vehicles get you to work. Others make you forget about work. 😂
