Several have suggested that I get towing insurance before I take a trip. I checked with my insurance provider and for $5 every six months I get towing, but it only covers the first $35. That will not even tow a car. So, my question is which is best? I have joined both Good Sam and FMCA and both offer Road service. Which is best. The price is practically the same.

I have Good Sam Insurance. Luckly for me , I never used it until last Friday. I had heard terrible tales of the long waits and no service. I had a blow out on the right inside drive axle. Went about a mile to rest area. Called Good Sam, and 45 minutes later they were changing the tire. I had to pay for the tire , Good Sam paid $150. for Road service. I am happy.

I have had Good Sam's for years. They have always been great. One tow will cover 10 years of Insurance.

Had to use CoachNet twice in one week last year. Once for the bus and once for the jeep, no problems. Quit my Good Sam membership 2 years ago and am still getting junk mail from them although it does seem to be tapering off some finally.

"Quit my Good Sam membership 2 years ago and am still getting junk mail from them although it does seem to be tapering off some finally."

The solution for ALL junk mail is to wait till you get a postage paid envelope , and wrap and glue it to a brick.

They soon tire of purchasing bricks by the ounce from their PO account.

Works EVERY time,

When the wrecker from AAA arives for your bus it's a Ford F150.

When the wrecker from Coachnet arrives it's a 4 axle Kenworth. And it probably got there first.
