Default Road service

Who do you use for emergency road service?? AAA or ??
Thanks for any input, my wife works out of town, and I recently took a job out of town also, so we are traveling quite a bit, and thought emergency road service might be a good idea. :yesnod:

I use AAA w/ their "PLUS" program as it allows you to be towed up to 100 miles for nothing, 4x's a year :yesnod: They also include lockout svc and gas in an emergency. (I think the basic program tows for less than 10 miles...)
We have been members for well over a decade and my family has been members for longer than I care to remember.
One other thing, When I call and request a rollback, I GET a rollback. <This is a HUGE plus for nervous guy's like me :seeya

We have AAA, always has been great. I had a rash of breakdowns with different cars back last fall and used them about 5 times in a couple months. Was worth the membership dues!!

AAA Plus....and if you need to call them DEMAND a flatbed (rollback) which is your right...my water pump and , of course, opti went a couple of months ago...they sent a guy who knew vettes and he took the time to show me exactly how my vette should be hooked up under the car, loaded and secured...I was real lucky to get that guy especially if there is a next time....
