Ever think about the logic of roadside service plan? The company is betting you will take care of your vehicle, not break down, need service. If they loose that bet too often, you get cancelled

Only time I needed a tow for pickup and camper, used smartphone to find tow services. Did not know area well enough to decide which would be best. Found a non-emergency number for state Highway Patrol. Called them told it was not emergency, gave my location, and asked for a recommendation. The tow cost less cash than a year premiums.
