With my first coach I had AAA RV Plus. I broke down in Biggs Junction, OR, and had to be towed 136 miles to Bend, OR, which was the nearest qualified repair facility. AAA only covered the first 100 miles. I had to pay $162.00 (36 miles x 4.50 per mile).
If I had Coach Net then, as I do now, they would have covered the entire tow charge.
Correct, but if you had AAA Premium, to compare apples to apples, AAA would be no charge too.
OP asked about AAA RV Plus, and since Coach Net today costs me less than what AAA RV Plus did back then (I can only assume that Premium would be higher yet), I feel I am definitely comparing apples to apples. Also the comfort of knowing that Coach Net will provide coverage any where I travel in the US without the potential territorial issues with AAA is a big plus. If some one feels more comfortable with AAA, then that's fine. I'm not here to argue.
Coachnet current price $159

AAA Premier current price $118

...at least for Upstate NY pricing.
Not an AAA fanboy here and don't work for them either, just saw some incorrect info in the thread and providing some facts to help others with decision. I agree with the "anywhere in the US" comment too and I agree that there are many variables that would make up the decision. Heck, if you had multiple family members/kids driving, then I'm sure one of these would be better than the other too :)
