What about towing? Any clue? Decided against roadside plans after reading about LONG wait times as they try to find the cheapest tow around..
The long wait times are usually related to where an appropriate tow truck has to come from. The ERS companies usually have a number of tow services they work with under contract, and only go outside of those companies when no one is available. The longest we've waited for a tow was about two hours for a truck that came 65 miles, and the shortest was one that showed up while I was still on the phone with Coach-Net. That one was pure coincidence though, since the driver was on his way back from another call and stopped to see if we needed help. He got the call from his dispatcher a few minutes later.
If you check out the features that the Coach-Net and Good Sam ERS plans offer besides unlimited towing, you might see why many of us never hit the road without them. Tire changes, lockout service, fuel delivery, jump starts, and tech support for your coach appliances are just some of the benefits that can be more than worth the annual cost.
