Roadside coverage

From what I have deduced.....GSERS has a limited number of truck companies with which they have contracted....and Coach Net casts a wider net.

Makes sense I guess?? If both RS's have called the same rescue truck company wouldn't the wait times still be the same?

I have never had any ERS except what my primary Ins. carrier offered. I paid less than $40 per yr. and was always satisfied with the service when it was needed. That would be the ideal backup if you insist on purchasing a stand alone ERS coverage.

Why?

How did Good Sam make $163? How Did you get billed by Good Sam? I did not think GS did that. I thought the non covered roadside bill was between you and the company providing the service. Even using your math there is not a $163.00 difference

Actually, Good Sam pays the service provider and you pay Good Sam. I know, it surprised me too.

Road trips are one of the many great ways of spending leisure time or vacationing or enjoying quality time with friends and family. It is adventurous and people all around the world look forward to it all year.

I don't own an RV. I don't have a reason to post here EXCEPT If I were in trouble and needed assistance I would thank my lucky stars if the help came in 40 minutes or 4 hours. GS seems to want to take care of you if you have a problem. Yes, banter between one another and I don't know if it gets resolved. All I know is it soon becomes PILE ON SAMS CLUB. My recommendation is take both and see who reaches you first. They are the winner.

I had the misfortune of having to use my Good Sam Road service recently. I was going on a long road trip so I thought the $79.95 was worth the peace of mind.I called the number and spoke to a young lady who was very helpful. She found someone to come and help me, called me back when she said she would and even called back later to make sure someone had come out. I don't feel I could have asked for better service. My only concern is that for the repairs, I paid Good Sam $384. The mechanic got me to sign the invoice and they had charged Good Sam $301. I was surprised that Good Sam was making a profit off of my misfortune. What it boils down to is that in this particular trip, I could have saved $163 by calling someone myself. But still, service was excellent.

$79.95 for the roadside service plan plus $83 difference between the costs for service equals
$163.00!!!!!!!
