Re: Cranked/fired 3x, then nothing
I've had AAA for 17 years and used towing >5 miles only once. I dropped the premium package (extended towing) a few years ago. Fortunately I had the 100 mile towing when I last needed it and it was about 60 miles, so there were no charges. They flat-bedded my SRT6 (I told them no towing) about 5-6 years ago when it blew a plenum plug. I am about 7 miles from my indie shop, so if I need it towed from home it would only be $10-15 surcharge. With three drivers and my wife's car covered by Lincoln for another year, it's just cheaper to take the risk. When her MKZ goes off coverage, then it will make sense to buy the premium since her car is the one we use the most for long distance trips and the two 2005 XFs are not getting any younger.
