Funny commercials!

Good thing I don't have a spare tire to change out. I guess I'll let the AAA guy worry about it.

Trusting AAA to randomly select Billy Bob's Repair shop to come out and touch your Vette is like trusting Jiffy Lube to change your oil IMO.

Who said you had to let him touch it.. Just tell him to leave his tools with you then be a good little boy, run back into town and steal a camero wheel, bring it back - here's $20, now get lost.
