Do you purchase roadside assistance insurance?



What service and tier do you use?

If you go through your insurance, is the coverage pretty terrible? (5 mile tows, etc)

i have USAA, have only had to use it twice, once was for a real tow, I don't remember if there was a limit on it.

Probably something I don't really need but it's nice to have. Plus I know towing can get expensive, so I'm probably balancing out how much I pay with how much I use it.

I think I once had it through progressive or the general and after I read the policy I realized the towing limit was a useless 5 miles. I'm sure some car insurance plans offer better coverage, though.

Its definitely important to know the policy terms beforehand. I know if I'd been stranded outside of any major metropolitan area with my previous coverage I'd have probably had a fat bill for towing, anyways.

I ended up purchasing Good Sam roadside for my car tonight. Their top plan is about $40 more than the top AAA plan in my region, but given the two tire replacements per year (cost of repair or new tire included), 500 mile tows and coverage in Mexico, which I plan to visit later this year probably it's worth it. It also has all the basic things like emergency fuel delivery and lockout coverage. They currently are offering it at around half price for presidents day. Yes, the company is geared towards old RVers and retirees but from everything I've read in the policy itself it's solid.
