let's do the math:
70 days@ $55.00 a day= $3850
add a tow into that and it sounds like he charged you right. did you expect him to keep your car there for free taking up space? sounds like the only person at fault is you for leavign the car there that long and/or not doing your research on how much it will cost to paint an entire car ($12k is cheap)properly.

LOL!
I hear what you are saying, however having a policy posted on the wall does not mean that somebody was agreeing to pay that fee. If taken to course that charge of $4000 could be competely thrown out (if it's considered unreasonable) or a lesser fee imposed based on what is commonly used through the industry. $4000 for 70 days is over $57 a day. Even $25 a day is steep but reasonable so the max they should be is $1750.
Even at that most industrial building are not renting at $25 a sq/ft, more likely $1.25 or less depending on the area. So even $25 a day is tough to justify.
They are asking for $4000 which is likely $50 a day x 70 days = $3500 plus $500 to tow. Thats retarded and I would never pay it.
