I agree.

This show is completely fake. Some of the things you see on that show is just obviously fake (on one episode a Prius owner decides to destroy his own car)(in another episode, they repo a PLANE).

And some of the things they do to get those cars cannot be legal. On countless occasions the "owners" of cars getting repo'd should be able to file harassment because that guy with the dome either threatens them or touches them...

This show is more fake than WWE.

Thanks pack-smart, you made me actually think about this show for a few minutes and you're completely right...

Can you imagine what a mess they would have made if they tried to tow it?? I bet they would end up with the front clip chained to the wrecker and the car would be sitting in the street...

Don't make me imagine them towing it rear wheel down.

This is also why my fake detector's going crazy, usually they just flatbed the cars, they really never drive them...Somebody tipped them that they shouldn't try to tow the car...

Thanks Dude, the whole thing was obviously scripted/staged, maybe based loosely on an actual repo event.

It does say "based on true events". How much of it is actually true?

Cars get repossessed every day. That's enough.
