boycott AAA ,they have a ANTI performance stance,, since the mid 1980's ,,u get fewer tows per year if you drive a "unreliable" performance vehicle..
The wait wasn't as much of an issue as the run around to ultimately be told that I was SOL and I'd "just have to figure it out." I was (and still am) livid about that.
Towing my sons 2016 Freightliner Cascadia.
1 1/2 inches of duct tape, a pair of vice grips and a tube of JB Weld you could've been motorvating down the highway in 15 minutes.
Some day all tractors will be restomod '57 chevys.
Here is the big difference (to me) I find between AAA and Good Sam.
Good Sam - Unlimited-distance towing to the nearest service center. (Additional fees may apply to tow to location of customer's choosing.)
AAA - If your disabled vehicle cannot be driven safely, it will be towed to location of choice (certain miles apply) or back to responding AAA facility. (Plus plan= Up to 100 miles or back to responding facility.)
It looks like AAA gives the better flexibilty on getting it home. And since I do a lot of my own work I wouldn't typically have it towed to a shop.

You forgot the bailing wire....
Makes since I’m good working on my ‘72 El Camino or ‘94 Jeep but I’m over my head with the 2015 F150 or 2019 Chevy RV and those 2 are the ones usually out a ways from home.
I have never bought a vehicle I am not going to work on myself.
You rich guys can probably afford the towing.
I had a starter go out on my 82 mustang the original went 300,000 miles and the replacement that went out on me went 40,000.
I was at a Bank in OKC and pulled the starter in the parking lot and started walking to the Autozone to get it replaced under warranty.
Had a piece of cardboard in the trunk and used it as a glove to keep that hot sucker from cooking my hand while I was on my journey.
I would hate to have to walk 50 miles though. A few miles not so bad.
