How the Hell do towtrucks and mechanics work?

[robbietwoguns]

So I bought a large towtruck, and I figured out how to tow vehicles by raising and lowering the winch.  I also see I can press 'X' in it to flip or fix a car, but can we not use it to mod or upgrade cars?  The reason I'm asking is I see people making calls on the mechanic line all the time, and sometimes mentioned paintjobs or upgrading/tuning, etc?

 

If you're a freelance mechanic (or want to be anyways), how and where do you work on peoples cars if you're not attached to a business garage?

Tow trucks are for towing, fixing, and flipping if it’s bugged or something but you cannot use it or RP modding a vehicle with it.

Mechanic hotlines are usually answered by mechanics working at a garage because it’s either asking for modifications or an accident or something related.

Hope this answers your question!

ahhh well damn.  Thanks for the info.  Quick follow up: I assume you can't work on your own cars in your home garage either right?  Assuming you have a home garage that is.

Sadly not aswell, home garages are for storing vehicles only!
