No, it's not a joke. This really is a museum of tow trucks and a whole lot more. In 1916, Chattanoogan, Ernest Holmes, sold the first tow truck for commercial use. In fact, the entire towing industry began in the Scenic City. A very interesting array of tow trucks from the 20th century fill this museum. Exhibits that chronicle the history of the industry are part of the tour. See website for further information.
