To people saying "stay in your lane and make tow videos" - start your own channel if it bothers you so much. GTOger, you're doing great.

When an event like this happens, it’s always ALWAYS better to contact the police, get an Incident number, and include that incident number when filing a claim with the insurance company. Large corporations like...Larriott will always ignore you or give you the run around. Always go through your own insurance company because they have an obligation to make the policy holder whole. Plus, insurance companies have a lot more “teeth” when it comes to getting paid from other company’s, up to and including litigation. He wasted time contacting the other company, thinking that they would be reasonable.

I can almost guarantee a lawyer can straighten this whole mess out. Worked for me in my car accident when the other driver's insurance refused to pay.

Am I the only one who likes when Chris pops up on the channel? Always nice to get the "behind the scenes" view. I would like to see MORE videos like this.

We didn’t come to see the people’s comments that say we didn’t come to see your face. Losers have the loudest mouths. Keep doing what you can and what you want

Any other atheists here completely unbothered by gtoger's mention of church? Yes, we can get along. Thanks for keeping us entertained, especially right now. Carry on!

I think regarding the hate and destructive criticism, the like-to-dislike ratio speaks for itself. Rock on, Chris. 👍🏼

7:27 Um dude, you might not want to park there... vehicles get towed from there ALL the time!

When Chris referenced the "C word" I thought "he wouldn't say anything unsavoury would he?" Then he clarified it. Haters will always hate. Since when has GTOger ever got preachy? Keep on keepin' on Chris- love the channel. Man I am soo looking forward to seeing your car collection, *especially* that super-cool '67 GTO.

This guy drives a bad ass Corolla and a bad ass GTO and works on old school computers? This guy is bad ass. You haters aren't allowed to criticize him.

Girl: I'm a Libra! What's your sign? GTOger: It's a No Parking sign

New Channel name: "Dude! Where's my car?" LOL.

This channel wouldn’t be the same without the GTOger name. As long as you’re making videos I will be watching them. Even if a video doesn’t have a tow truck and it mentions church!!! Lol

You just keep doing what you do. If people don't like it, it's easy enough to click out. I don't know why they think they feel the need to complain.

I see some cool vintage computer gear on the shelves behind your desk - reminds me of my time working for Tandy in the 1980s!

Keep the channel alive brother. Keep putting out the content. I watched one where you walked around the surrounding area during construction. It was neat seeing what businesses were in the area that cause people to feel the need to park in a no parking zone. Gorgeous GTO too.

Ignore the haters and I actually like these videos.

"GTOger" is more than just a channel name; it's your brand, and everyone who comes to this channel associates what they get with that brand. Re-branding is usually one of the biggest mistakes a company makes and can lead to failure. Don't change your brand!

If you go to church or a temple or whatever. I dont care. As long we have drumbeats 😏

He has enough stuff stuff in that office to start a retro tech channel.

As a non-religious person, I'd just like to apologise for the morons who start flinging insults because they can't cope with someone having a different belief system or world view. I'm sure you don't let it bother you, but it's very much their problem, not yours. Also a life-long Queen fan so I'm more likely to have been irked by the "take" on BoRhap. But no, I had a good chuckle and dropped a link over to the Queen Official YT channel. Keep up the great work.

That algorithm is kinda flipped. They should throttle back people that floods the network with multiple videos per day, to let new content bubble up.

6:48 --That dirty spot on the windshield looks like someone running in the street. :-)

I’ve been watching your videos for a few months now and enjoy the content you upload. No matter what you do, haters are going to hate. In these tough times KZfaqr’s such as yourself won’t be able to post your usual content and most of us get that, it’s the small percentage that don’t. Keep on doing what you’re doing because I for one look forward to your videos.

The company that rhymes with lariat just gave themselves a whole lot of bad publicity on KZfaq. Guess people who don't bother to heed No Parking signs aren't the only ones who get publicly shamed here. Good for you.

Hooray, a new GTOger video! For the idiots: "Well, bless your little heart!" That's how you say FU in Texas, if one is so inclined on the rare occasion.

I like you even more since you mentioned "the C word"

I love it when you appear on camera. You’re funny, well spoken, and have great topics. We support you! ❤️

7:28 - I can't see any "no parking" signs anywhere 🤣

I enjoy everything that comes out of this channel. Keep up what you're doing, and ignore the haters.

Hey Chris, I'm here for you, and what you do. If it's a little different under very different circumstances, I'm really ok with that. I definitely appreciate your sincerity, and that you're not just posting meaningless crap. Keep it up. I'll keep watching. BTW: my high school car, a 1973 Monte Carlo was built in the same Fremont, CA plant!

7:22-7:30 Now how can you NOT see any of those signs when parking? As far as keeping uploading videos for the algorithm to suggest your videos, don't worry. In 9 or so years, KZfaq will start recommending your videos at random.

Wow - you've become that guy we see driving along the freeways talking to himself. 😁

the dislikes are people who got their cars towed

When you say things back to normal, define "normal"... HAHAHA

7:30 = O, I DID NOT SEE THE NO PARKING SIGN THERE ("AT ALL"), NOPE, DON'T SEE IT AT ALL!! don't you just love the stupid ones that park in the lot and cry afterwards? LOL!!

Thanks for all your entertainment. Just love the channel. This is my first post on here as I wanted to say please don’t think a few nay-sayers speak for us, the silent majority, that loves what you do. I obviously enjoy the tow video content but your engaging likable personality is what makes it even better. God bless!

Mr. Animal here, keep doing what you are doing. Life is real and keep being real. God bless you my friend.

07:25 My head is screaming: "Don't park there! Can't you see the SIGNS!"

I always thought GTOger referred to: "Getting Towed Oger (Ogre)", that is an ogre who preyed on those getting towed. Keep the videos flowing, I love your work.

Seeing some of those classic computer peripherals behind you at the office made this video worth watching.

"We don't have insurance that covers our mistakes" absolves corporations of liability? Huh, good one.

Yeah, would so be calling my lawyer and let him talk to "Larriott"

Your face is fine. A little different from the other apartment owners we are locked in with.

Every good channel has it's haters, they have nothing else to do. We love you.

I love your content, including this type of improvised chat, keep up the great work!

I feel your coworker's pain with dealing with car repairs. I still remember the trouble I had with my 1997 Pontiac Grand Am after I got into an accident on the freeway after work. Took two trips to the shop for repairs. It looked right after the first trip, but when I was driving home, I discovered that they hadn't aligned the front end, forcing me to drive with the wheel turned 45 degrees to the left. Then I discovered that they didn't replace the smashed washer fluid tank. It was almost like they cosmetically fixed it and left the hidden stuff wrecked. After that, it was never really right. It seemed like something was going wrong with it to the point that every time I drove it I was expecting something to go wrong. I've always heard that once a car gets damaged, it's never quite right again. I was so glad to get rid of it when I traded it in for my first Jeep.

3:00 = Haters going to Hate, poor souls: ALL YOUR CONTENT IS AMAZING!! SCREW ALL THE HATERS!! YOU DO YOU GTOGER!!

I'd like to see a walk-through of the classic computers!

Hey! I'm an Atheist, and I don't care if you go to church or not, brother. You do you! Love your channel and you in particular, my dude! Stay safe!

Love the collection of old-school computers behind you. Apple II+, Zip drives, that's a drive down memory lane!

Hey - Thanks for the current videos you are doing and keeping us entertained during these times!

IMHO ... The sexiest cars are the ones that never let you down and can always be relied upon.

Haters will be hating. You keep doing you and we will stay here and wait for a new video! Love the channel. Stay safe and thanks for the update! Have a great day

I enjoy these videos, you’re friendly, engaging, and I find your content interesting. I find the snapshots of your town through your windows fascinating and really hope you’d consider giving us a tour of your favourite spots 😃

I don’t understand the “stay in your lane” guys. Or the “C” word people. Nobody is forcing anybody to watch anything. Keep it up 👍. I enjoy the connection during the pandemic.

Stop apologising we love all of your vids 👌

I can't tell you how much I enjoy your channel -- I"m a long-time subscriber. You always have something interesting to say and I really enjoy all the videos you post. I'm never disappointed with anything you've ever post on your channel. Keep up your stellar work.

That was worth watching, just to see the parking lot we all know and love appear through the windshield. And it makes it pretty obvious that the signs clearly state that parking's not allowed, no where and no how.

I have a 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe that I bought brand new for my wife on December 20th, 2003. Excellent little SUV that I’m now driving around as my wife now has a Mustang convertible that she always wanted. Has 192000 trouble free miles. I’ve taken good care of her and feel the same way as you do. Just a good old friend that keeps looking out for me. I thought I was the only one that felt that way about a car. 👍🤣

Thank you for going the extra mile to keep your channel going. As far as your church reference, personally I'm not a churchgoer but I respect any person's faith and habits if they're nice people; you strike me as a nice person. Don't let intolerant posters get you down. FWIW, you have my respect. Health to you and yours, Oger.

1. I don't mind seeing you and hearing you talk. 2. I don't mind you mentioning the c-word. It's not like you're preaching or anything. 3. Nice classic computers behind you, and games :) 4. I like this content and you catching up on past events. 5. It was nice to see the parking lot from a different angle this time.

I have only just discovered your channel, and it's a great smile after a long day in tech. (At least currently I am not having to be in the office for a 10 pm meeting!) Working my way through all these little treats. Hope the tows come back soon. Your commentary is the best!

I remember watching that video and thinking, “Somebody drove a big truck when they didn’t have experience driving a big truck!” And that’s putting it nicely! 😂. Hello from Seattle, Washington!

I've got a suggestion for a channel name: "GTOger"

That collection of antique computers behind you is impressive! LOL

Used to love when the "lift" of the VVTL engaged on my 04 matrix with the 2ZZ GE engine. That was a fun versatile little hatchback.

You stay safe! I want to keep seeing these, as they do give me a good laugh in these tough times. Thank you!

I like seeing your face on KZfaq. Some people are just nasty. You, sir, ROCK!

Those people with the "stay in your lane" comments are rude and classless. Mentioning the word church isn't preaching to you. Sigh. Wow. Those "no parking" signs are almost invisible. It's so hard to see them.

Chris, seeing all the old PC equipment behind you brings back memories. I started in PCs in 1976, when Apple was a fruit you ate and before IBM changed their name to "Itty Bitty Machines". I have a similar collection of equipment, much from Ohio Scientific, Compaq (like your luggable), Apple (II+disk drives like yours), original Mac, but also Cromemco, SWTPc (from Texas!) and others. I enjoy messing with the "old" stuff as it is much more interesting. Carry on, mate! "Great minds think alike, and so do ours!" And thanks for not being afraid to say you're a man of faith!

Keep doing what you're doing and please ignore the trolls. Thanks for the entertainment!

Thanks for the update! Sounds like typical insurance runaround bs.

Seriously? I'm freakin' PAGAN(married to an Anti-Theist who was raised in a STRICTLY Christian household), and I don't care. You do you my dude. Everyone believes what they want to, and there's no need to knock others beliefs. I'm looking forward to more videos! :)

I understand completely about your coworker’s decision. My wife and I have had to follow that route twice. In one case, I was driving and the woman who caused the accident was upset because she had to stay there until everything was settled and she was convinced we had caused the accident. So, I decided to just go with our insurance company. In the other incident, my wife was driving and she was hit by s driver that just drove into our car. The other driver was clearly at fault and my wife exchanged information with him. However, when she called his insurance company, the agent told her that they don’t cover the cost of a rental replacement. So, we decided to just go with our insurance. In case you’re considering this, what happened with us was our insurance company covered everything less our deductible, which was $200. Then, Once they got the money from the other insurance companies, they would refund our deductible. In both cases it took over a year. I highly recommend this, if you have a company that will do this for you because life is short.

Great videos as always!!! As soon as any damage/accident/anything is discovered in the parking lot, you should have the owner/victim of the vehicle call the police for a report to be done. In this case, a hit and run motor vehicle accident report would have made everything so much easier for both the owner of the Corolla and his insurance carrier. Having a documented police report would give the ability for both the investigating police agency and insurance carrier to go after the rental truck company and whoever the driver/renter was. No one should have to jump thru hoops to get a car fixed after an unfortunate situation like that, especially an employee just trying to work their shift. Keep the videos comin' when possible thanks!!!!!

I love this channel!!! If people don’t like it then they’re wasting their time getting you down 😜

I like the GTO story I have a 1950 Ford and when I needed a screen name, nothing else but shoeboxford would do.

English older guy here. I love your podcasts. Take no notice of the idiots who do you down. You are a natural newscaster. Do more vids. Cheers, Stan.

First time seeing the lot from that angle. I don't know how I missed that loading dock.

7:15 What kind of sorcery is this!? The signs are visible when cars approach!? I know when I'm being lied to with digital trickery! :)

Love the TI-99 computer sitting on the desk, was my first computer it had a tape drive for memory.

I love that you gave us a driver's view of what those transgressors see when they park there. No doubt about it! Unless you're blind, plenty of 'writing right there on the brick wall!!' LOL! Love your videos. Stay safe!

I enjoy just about every post you make. Keep going! -Blessings

I like seeing handsome guys on KZfaq so you’re very much a welcome sight. I also enjoy seeing cars, particularly cars that have been around for a while, so you’re good on that as well. Keep doing what you do as you like to do it and the viewer situation will take care of itself.

You can talk to me about Church all day long. Love your channel, and God Bless!

I love all the old school tech/games in the background. The old King's Quest VI box brings back lots of memories.

A driver for a security company ran into my truck. I did the wise thing and called the police so there was an official report. When they started screwing me around I told them I didn't want to turn it into a legal matter but I would. It's amazing how quickly my truck got repaired.

You keep makin' em, I'll keep watching em.

Thumbs up! For the Pontiac Vibe! I knew I recognized that right rear window. I had a 2004 Pontiac Vibe as well, mine was the All-Wheel-Drive model. Great Car!!!

I've had a similar situation on two separate occasions and I've used the following technique effectively: For those who get a 'we can't help you' from all the parties involved, just file a legal claim with the court, and name EVERY party even remotely conceivably liable. It's a no-lose situation because there is overwhelming evidence that someone else did it, and the first thing a judge has to do is to decide who is responsible out of the parties involved, but you make sure you want to include every party otherwise if the judge decides it's a different party then the claim will be thrown out and you will have lost those costs. In the UK a claim of that size would be handled by the small claims court and it's very cheap to file a claim and you don't need a solicitor. Don't keep accepting further and further delays by someone who pretends to be accepting responsibility - the case isn't resolved until you get the money, and if you haven't actually received the money in your account by the last date for filing a claim, have your claim ready and file it. Sometimes it is necessary to file a legal claim because otherwise some companies will just continue to give you the run-around until the date for filing a legal claim expires, and then there's nothing you can do. For the record, I've never lost a legal case. And also keep a diary of events after a situation like this as well as it will make your case preparation easier. Note: Sometimes when you win you still need to go back to the court for enforcement of the debt, and that costs more, but those costs are also added to the money they owe you.

This reminds me of a prang that happened to me. I was stopped at a crossing where a toddler with trike was crossing. In the mirror I saw a car coming up fast behind. I figured they were distracted and would not stop. I applied all my brakes hard on. That car rammed into the light trailer attached to my towbar. The energy was focused at the towbar which was rammed into the boot (trunk) of my car. Damage was extensive, but the car had not moved and the toddler was safe. That car was old and of low value, and because I had it just 3rd party insured, I needed to negotiate with her insurance myself. At first I was ignored, and then I was told I needed to fix the car and trailer - and they would CONSIDER settling the bill. I had no money to meet repairs. So I visited the Insurer's office and informed them that I needed them to fix the car. Their manager said according to THEIR RULES, they would only consider settling a bill. I replied that repairs were out of my reach and it seems that their client's policy will not perform as their client expects. So I would sue their client as an uninsured party. The manager reared up out of his chair, brilliant red in the face hyperventilating and yelled "Take a effing holiday mate". I returned to work. The phone rang and an insurance worker told me that thhe insurer would fix the car and trailer and also rent me a utility truck from HERTZ. Maybe this might give others some useful tips.

Another interesting video. The world is made up of different perspectives. Not everyone sees the same thing in the same light. Thank you for being you.

4T Productions. ( Tinkle timer and tow trucks)

Buddy of mine worked for a college in Virginia and had a similar situation to what your coworker dealt with. He got the run around for like 10 minutes. So he hung up, took the video (because it's a college campus and students have a tendency to screw up stuff around the place) and filed a police report against the driver for hit and run/ leaving the scene of an accident. The company had the gall to claim HE was at fault, but in the end, his lawyer raked the buggers over the coals for a CONSIDERABLE amount of money.

I work for an insurance company. What usually happens is even though they are not responsible for damage done to a vehicle, if your co-worker has full coverage, they pay out under the uninsured / underinsured clause. They then sue the responsible parties / insurance company they have a policy through. This is called subrogation.

"Larriot" it's time to stand up and do what's right. Show him the money. I want to say so much but....inhale... exhale. Please let us know if they ever make things right.

PLEASE never stop, your content is very refreshing and absolutely entertaining! Btw I hate the C-word and R-word but what other people do and believe it's not my business, I liked that video, a good snippet of daily life in all this chaos 💖

It’s scary how many pieces of that computer gear I recognize. Like the TI-99 on your desk. Classic !

I'm glad to see you have a 1967 GTO. I also had one that I bought new. I ordered it just the way I wanted it and had a 6 week wait for it to be built. I loved that car and enjoyed it a lot. Unfortunately, in what could only be described as a bout of insanity, I traded it for a 69 Pontiac Grand Prix. It was a good car and had basically the same power train as the GTO but it sure didn't have the looks. I have often wondered why I got rid of that car.
