Towing: how we help
For a tow on the 1985 Dodge Ram 50 Pickup, a trusted shop does the work and CarmaCars arranges it, with a rental if you need one. If the car is blocking traffic, stay safe first and call for help.
Before the shop sees your Ram 50 Pickup
The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. If you have the service history of your Ram 50 Pickup, have it ready for the shop. Under the hood: the 2.0L 4-cylinder and rear-wheel drive.
How the request works
We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one.
A rental while you wait
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Getting a clear quote
Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree.
Small things that help
If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due.
