Baker Motor Nightmare - Awesome Cab Driver

Not sure who this goes to exactly, but here goes. I'm not using my real name so I'll go by Bob. This past weekend, I got my car towed by my house in North Olmsted. So I call a cab and he takes me to Baker Motors in Lakewood to get my car. I asked him to wait outside. The guy at Baker said my car was at their affiliate place in North Ridgeville. So I ask this cab driver to take me to North Ridgeville. He felt sorry for me. We had a great chat from Lakewood to North Ridgeville. I don't think I had discussed so many topics in that short amount of time with anyone. So at least that was nice considering how annoyed I was. So I get to North Ridgeville and tell them I'm there to get my car. They said it wasn't there. I called Baker in Lakewood and they said no, the car is here in Lakewood. I was pissed.

So this cab driver takes me BACK to Lakewood and when I get there the registration wasn't in the car. I asked the cab driver to take me back to my house to get it in North Olmsted. From North Olmsted, he had to take me back to Lakewood again to get the car. I swear to God this ride must have added up to be $150 at least. I didn't care at this point and just wanted my car. Getting to work the next day was more important. So this cab driver felt so sorry for me, he gave me a deal. He only charged me $70. I'm not sure how all that works, but it was a bright side to a hideous story. I don't even remember his name, but if you're out there, thanks again. I'll never let my car get towed again, ever. Don't deal with Baker Motors, they're all power maniacs and rude. It's a nightmare.
