Read the policies carefully. Most will only tow you to the nearest approved facility. If you have a specific shop in mind and it is further away, the additional charges will be on you. Usually not an issue when travelling but when your car breaks down near home and you want it towed to your favorite mechanic, it might cost you extra. Some policies will give you a mileage limit but make sure that it is for where YOU want to tow to, not to the nearest shop. I think Good Sam now has an extra cost policy that allows for this. I plan to look into it next month when my AAA policy expires.
