Ok, so i park in a lot, 12 MINUTES before 6PM, and i get towed. after 3 hours of BS (getting forms notarized @ 9 oclock at night, getting towing fee in cash) I finally get my truck back. I keep the tow guy there as i proceed to check for everything. (Ipod, GPS, head unit, catalytic converters-this is richmond you know.) She ran and handled alright on the long drive home, is there anything else i need to check for?

haha, nice. Here in Georgia, I would check to see if I still had the same amount of gas in my tank!

Yeah, she runs fine. I'm worried about the rear end though, i have the mech LSD (its an 06) could the tow have had any bad effects?

You mean they actually "towed" it? As in front in the air, rear wheels on the ground? Those kind of trucks are a dying breed around here, everything is all flatbed unless it is the trucks for towing the big rigs. Did they break in to release the emergency brake? Or did you not have it set? Otherwise, those back wheels would have had to have been on dollies. In which case, they weren't rolling and it is a moot point.

Pretty sure the front wheels were in the air...and no, the parking brake wasnt set. (auto)
