Wishes from our family to yours this Thanksgiving.

Where does the time go? The autumn of 2017 is here (along with the cold weather!) and the holiday season and end of the year festivities will be here soon. Originally celebrated to give thanks for the harvest and the blessings of the previous year, the Thanksgiving ritual provides us all an opportunity to gather with friends and family, share stories, enjoy traditional foods at the dinner table and watch a few football games.

I am grateful for the members of our staff who have served in the United States Armed Forces.

I am thankful that I have had the pleasure to work with you toward the continued pursuit of the excellence of all of our businesses.

I am grateful for the members of the team here at Nick's Towing Service who work diligently and demonstrate their commitment to excellence each and every day. There is not a situation or need that cannot be handled effectively (no matter how strange!).

As you gather with those you love to express thanks for the blessings of the past, we cannot help but project to the year ahead. We sincerely hope to be a part of your plans for 2017 as you look forward.

Have a safe holiday and remember we're always here, even on Thanksgiving Day, should you need us.

God bless,

Nick Testa, the Testa family and the entire family at Nick's Towing Service

Distracted Driving

Thanksgiving is one of the busiest travel holidays of the year. To keep you, and your family, safe follow these simple steps to avoid distractions from driving. You'll arrive a lot less stressed too!

1. If another activity demands your attention, like screaming kids or a dropped toy, pull off the road in a safe place. "Don't make me stop this car!"

2. If you have passengers, enlist their help to change the radio, open snacks, answer texts and calls.

3. Secure children and pets before getting underway.

4. Snack smart. Eat before you go if you can. On the road, avoid messy foods that can be difficult to manage.

5. Finish dressing and grooming before you hit the road. The driver seat is not the place for hair and makeup to be done.

6. Make adjustments before you leave the driveway. Adjust mirrors, seat, radio and set your GPS before you hit the road. Decide routes and check traffic before you leave.

7. Store loose gear that could drop and roll around on the floor so you won't feel tempted to reach for them on the floor.

8. Focus fully on driving. Watch for pedestrians, bicycles and motorcycles.

Military to Motorsports Follow Up

If you regularly follow our newsletter (and we hope you do) you'll know that we had the honor to transport the Andretti family's Indy race car into New York City earlier this month for the Veterans Day parade. We also moved it for a special news segment at Fox and Friends. Below is the video from the show as well as pictures from the parade. Please be sure to visit the Military to Motorsports website that we have below. David Tilton, former Navy Seal, and Michael Andretti are the forces behind this outstanding company that hires and trains military veterans to work on the race cars.

Holiday Quote

"On Thanksgiving I will stop and give thanks that my family is safe and healthy, especially because I realize that, following the trajedies of this year, it is all too real a possibility that they might not have been."
