(Ed.'s Note: If you happen to be driving down Adams and have a hankering for a nice caldo from Las Casuelitas, arguably the best in town, make sure you don't park in the lot next to their building.If you do, chances are that the landlord of the apartments across the lot from the restaurant will call the wrecker on you and the tow-truck operators will try to take your vehicle to their impound lot where you will be charged an arm and a leg to get it back.
What usually happens, as was the case at lunch time today, is that a tow truck will hook up your car and wait until you emerge and tell you that you're in violation of private property. There is a parking-metered city lot across Adams if the spaces along the street are full. But for the uninitiated, it will take a $50 fee for the driver to unhook his cable and allow you to leave with your vehicle.
There are signs in the restaurant that warn about this, but many customers are intent on eating and don't pay no mind to the sign on the wall. That lot, by the way, is almost always empty except for a few tenants of the apartments. The woman above just came to Las Casuelitas to enjoy a caldo only to pay an additional $50 on top of the $7 she was charged for the food. Le salio caro el caldo a la pobre señora!)

Pena's Wrecker is a fucking dick! Just because his "I used to work at DPS for 100 years" wife, he thinks he can whatever he wants when he picks up cars. If you get towed, you can expect a $315.00 tab. "But believe me, I used to work for the state",,,pendeja.
If you notice the wrecker says "Raymonds" but the sign says Express Towing. Both owned by Juana Trejo wife of Judge Mike Trejo JP LaFeria. This is an illegal tow attempt, it should have been an Express tow truck. Woman should file on them at TDRL in Austin. She has been fined before for illegal towing. Judge Mike Trejo who wants to be Sheriff. He has his own tow business ask him, he'll lie about it.
Rules are rules
PRIVATE PARKING IS PRIVATE PARKING the parking lot has numbers in each space and tow truck signs in 6 different areas.. plus the spaces aren't for the appointments they are for the people whom work in the surrounding business and is full.. the reason why there where no cars was because tenants where out to lunch.. and expect thier space to be vacant when they get back.. it only takes .50 cents to park in a meter space and you help downtown Brownsville prosper..
50 cents ain't helping prosper shit!
The only thing that is prospering in Brownsville is the pockets of those on the city commission, mainly those who support idiotic projects like the bike trails all over Brownsville. It is now totally ridiculous. La Gowen si esta bien chisquidad de madre! Afterall, it is understandable for it runs in the family.
