.......No.

 

Thinking about getting my moms a roadside assistance package ala AAA (so she'll quit bugging me)
anybody have any experiences/thoughts/suggestions?

 

 

My dad has it. We've used it a handful of times. There's a limit to how far they'll tow you for free, you still end up waiting a couple hours on them to get you. I guess it depends on how much it would've cost you outright to get towed and how often you think you may be needing something like that. If She's rocking some newer car, may not be as useful. If She's riding an old pos, may be a good idea. I know insurance companies offer similar services, may be cheaper like that?

 

I think my service like that was another 1.50 a month.

They'll tow like 45miles from where the vehicle broke down.

I've never used it though. Hope not to.

 

My insurance covered a fair portion of my tow home from the Dragon in 2011. I had to negotiate with them a bit to come up a little more on the payout they were going to give me though. I think I pay an extra 1.25$ for each vehicle I want that service on.

 

Yea the insurance coverage of it is usually really cheap. I think they'll even come out and change my tire for free.

(not that I would use it )

 

The towing coverage is nice if you need it.

 

I have Allstate motor club plus my insurance has a fair amount of coverage included(Farmers)

AMC is nice, you get 7 or 8 free car fax searches a month, lots of coupons and what not(useable ones to restaurants etc).

Its 14.95 a month, about to drop it though

 

I didn't even think about surance. They've got me trained that using them for anything besides donating money is a very bad thing.
