Commercial plates = no assistance?

I have my F350 DRW registered in MA where the law requires any pickup truck with more than 4 wheels to be registered as a commercial vehicle even though it is for personal use only.

I also have Good Sam Roadside assistance

I have heard that Good Sam does not offer roadside assistance to commercial vehicles and that I were to need them they would not render service to me and my truck camper.

Is this true?
  • Nice to get a quick authoritative reply from one of the Big Cheeses at GS Roadside. Now print that out and put it in your glove compartment, just in case....

    I assume you understand he is asking about coverage for his truck , not RV.
