Emergency roadside assistance

Progressive says Towing to nearest “Qualified” repair facility. Good Sam says Towing to nearest “Professional” repair facility. I have both. I’m going to drop one just not sure which one. By the way Camping World should tell people that the standard Good Sam roadside service doesn’t cover motor homes. When I called Good Sam I received the free upgrade but I feel like it’s some sort of gimmick.

    Another Coach Net, been 5 years and one major tow. TV broken down towing the 35ft 5W. Two trucks from Mancos CO to Cortez CO but the hitch was they had to come from Durango as it was the closest town that had trucks to handle the two units, all they asked for was a signature. I asked what the cost would have been and was told $900+. Add that to a couple tire changes, one on a week old tire with a bolt in it. :M Now search Good Sam Roadside ....... no comparison.
  • I have Coach Net and have used it just recently to tow a vehicle to a local shop. Service was quick and there was no question as to where I wanted it towed. Several years ago I used them to unlock my truck after someone (guees who) locked the keys inside.

    Like any insurance, it is easy to like a company until you have a problem.

    So, the operative question is how many times have you used their service and what as your experience?

    Not being negative, but want to make sure how to read anyone's post on insurance.
  • When I had Good Sam and a GMC Motorhome they would only take me to a Chevy dealer. It was a '75 GMC and had the Toronado front wheel drive. I had to pay $829, to get towed to a proper place. No more Good sam anything for me.
  • Qualified and professional are vague terms that can mean what ever they want it to mean. Which means they mean nothing useful.
