  • Every day I get up and head to work there is just no telling what I am going to experience. It's the dynamics of what I do that keeps it interesting. Each assignment is a blank canvas that unfolds in real time with all the twists and turns of life.
    We also see the loading of the Repo Stallion as we say goodbye to an awesome truck that gave us years of great service. On to the next thing...

    my condolences to the family of that lady and I hope the driver of the truck finds some kind of peace and comfort too. also saying goodbye to the repo stallion takes me back to when I had to part ways with my 2001 f350 because it was hit and totaled beyond fixing but I bought it back from the insurance company and sold it to a farmer to give a dying f350 a heart transplant so in all, it was worth the loss

  • @billythomas3832

    Hey Matt,
    You should move down here to Texas. Maybe you could buy back the old Stallion and have you a 2-truck operation. There is more than enough business in the Metroplex to keep you busy 24-7.
    I have to admire someone who can do the job you do and not take advantage of "easy" situations where you could cross the line and get it done quicker and maybe easier.
    I worked collections for a major lease-to-own company in the Metroplex and hated going out with the other guys in the office. 9 times out of 10 I would get payments when I went out alone. But, most of the other guys would demand the merchandise. More than once, I was terrified that we were fixing to get killed or arrested. One of them had a habit of taking stuff just to "get our money back" if he was "pretty sure" no one was home. One of those times, he stole a bunch of stuff that had nothing to do with the company we worked for from a house that was obviously not where the debtors were living. That was the last straw for me. I told him I would rather go into the worst parts of the area on my own rather than go ANYWHERE with him.
    Wasn't too much longer before he and the main manager of that store were arrested for theft, fraud and embezzlement of company funds and property.
    Always better to stay on the right side of the law, makes life a lot nicer.

    The quick development was already that way in the 90s. I worked at a computer shop back then, and whenever a customer that had just bought a brand new PC asked me "How long is this going to be up to date?" I always told them: Until you've left this store, then they'll have come up with something new again. And it's still like that today.

    True...... don't hang up on the loan officer. I got 2mos. behind on my loan due to a lay-off. But I communicated with the lender and they deferred the 2 payments to the end of the loan. I went back to work, got it paid off and all was good. The repo truck only comes as a last resort. Lender would rather work with borrower is at all possible.

      Can you not see all the parts that go along with the engine there too? If the engine was in the back the front wouldn't look like that.

      I also laughed but then I remembered the new VWs are front engine.

    All pluses on selling the old girl, money in your pocket, a good truck put back to use, and it's not being used to complete with you in your area.
    Can you give us an update on your Great Wife?
    Your family remains in my thoughts!!

      I actually bought the truck from a competitor here in Utah but I don't treat other recovery companies as competition simply because the lenders I work for are committed to me so it's like being a shark in a very big ocean and none of the other sharks are after the same fish as me. I avoid stealing business from other companies and they respect that and do the same for me. Shanda is very sick right now and going through the worst of her Chemo treatments. It's called FULFOX for anyone who wants to Google it...

    Yeah it is a bit depressing selling the old truck but the new owner has bought something thats well proven and reliable and should get a good run out of it. And yes that vw the timing was, how can i put it, um! unfortunate! take care - Andrew

    The Honda Del Sol is a type of Civic. The vehicle type was technically not wrong.
