Why does my AWD or 4WD vehicle need a flatbed in El Paso?
A wheel lift leaves two wheels rolling on the ground. On many AWD and 4WD vehicles that can damage the transfer case. A flatbed keeps all four wheels off the pavement, so nothing in the drivetrain turns during the move. Tell the operator your vehicle is AWD or 4WD when you call (915) 615-5465 so the right truck is sent.
Can you flatbed an EV with a dead battery in El Paso?
Yes. EV drive motors stay engaged with the wheels, so dragging with drive wheels down risks motor damage. A flatbed is the standard answer. Follow your vehicle manual's tow or transport mode to release the parking pawl. If the battery is dead, use the manufacturer's manual-release procedure. Tell the operator it's an EV so the right deck is sent.
