FAR cheaper for me (a single person with one vehicle) than AAA with very comparable services.

Pray that you never have to get any information from Customer Service, as they have apparently outsourced their web-center responses to the Vatican. (just kidding - they have no Customer Service, nor is there any information About Them on their site)

I am not sure if its cheap for more than a person/car. Also, what about the quality of the service?

I have this (learnt from Fatwallet) and it works fine for us. (Comparison of various clubs)

ComeOnNow, can you give us your experience with them? How many times did you use them, reasons, response times?

I have used them exactly once over couple of years and the experience was fine. Just like other auto clubs, they call an independent pick up truck service and service does the rest. As I had mentioned, I got the recommendation from a post at this site and they had recommended it based on their experience.

Hell, I make more in AAA discounts every year than the cost of the service.

I've make great deals with FW and internet codes, so I'd like to know what discounts cannot be found online, but are only with AAA. I have GM motor club btw.

statefarm offer me for like 10$ for 6 months, but you need to call any road assistance on your own, and then reimburse the fee. So far I use it 3-4 times like once a year. They reimburse quickly no question asked.

i probably save $20-30 just from aaa restaurant discounts

Their inoffice dmv counter also saves a ton of time instead of going to dmv

be careful using road service attached to your auto insurance- it often counts as a claim and can lead to higher insurance rates

you do not need to be aaa member to use dmv counter at the aaa office; i have gm motor club.

ditto about towing reimbursement from insurance company; it's a claim and you don't want claims if you want the best rate

beware of motor clubs that have strict limitations on number of service calls. several (like shell mc) will dis-member you if you go beyond the limit. shell booted me after 3 calls in one year (i have 3 cars). I've had 5 in a year with gm mc w/no issues.

"As a member, your vehicle can be towed up to 150 miles to a location of your choice for free."

if you can get that long of a tow for $49, it's a good deal... weird how they insure either cars or people.

AAA members get free maps and tourbooks of any place in the country. Do these guys have that? Not to mention the doscount on Hotels, Car rentals etc. Though most of the times you can get equivalent discounts elsewhere too such as Orbitz etc. Anyway i find it convinient to use AAA discounts.

AAA gives 5% off UPS shipments for one. I just got $3 off airport shuttle. Check your AAA web page and find out. They have local discounts listed by location.

my aaa will not let nonmembers use dmv counter

It probably varies by location whether they enforce this

AAA's discount with Penske Moving saved me more than I paid for the membership. AAA is worth it to me.
