This video answered a question I was going to ask--"What do you do when customer offers to pay and it's a free rescue"??? Another answer could be/should be when customer offers to pay--"They can donate Your chosen charity OR Customer's chosen charity". You answer reminded me of a Country Western song. A man named Joe stopped to help a stranded lady. Joe told her to help someone along the way. The lady goes to a cafe and sees a waitress abt 8 months pregnant. Orders her/Lady food when came to pay She/Lady leaves $100.00 bill with a note to help someone else. Waitress goes home and tells her husband "everything will be alright Joe"

Your video does, indeed, convey how much in the middle of nowhere you are! Pontiac?? I have only vague awareness of a Pontic SUV - are Pontiacs still being made? An hour and a half on dirt roads?? Reminds me if the song "Forty miles of Dirt Roads." Good rescue - I love your generosity in these rescues.
