I have had Coach Net for about 7 years and have never needed them. For $79 a year and given the serious miles we put on coast to coast I can not imagine being without the coverage. As to CW, no thanks, I have seen too many complaints and am familiar with how that organization does business.
As far as time spent on the side of the road I will not be there {for very long}. I carry all of the tools and of course a good spare {cannot imagine traveling with out one}, and have the rudimentary skills to quickly get that tire changed by myself. If I call CN and they have a response time for more than 30 minutes I will simply do it myself. Time spent on the shoulder is time in the "Dead Zone" and I will not linger.
As always.... opinions and YMMV
:C
