My beef with the subject is that they offer limited assistance (new

Maybe, if all you have is the Benz and that is all anybody drives. AAA allows
you to have any vehicle covered as well as any idiot in the household. I could
rack up all sorts of $100 services on Froggy, but then SWMBA would be out in
the dark in her korean car. Would it also cover cars that h

I need that insurance policy. I drive old cars long distances on a regular
basis. The last thing I need is to be stranded on the highway 100 miles from

Yes but that $100 oil change will not include a tow, neither will the RA
assistance that you get with it. Just not worth it in my eyes. I'd rather spend
the $100 for AAA plus and have peace of mind. You can get four 100 mile tows
per year with that. Now that's a bargain!

Consider that you are more or less buying an insurance policy with AAA. They
are betting that you won't need them for a year for $100. If you spend that
$100 at a stealership, you're getting something of value for the $100 as well
as qualifying you for Roadside Assistance.
So if you do the math
My point exactly. AAA is no longer a bargain unless you upgrade. The only time
we had it was when the wife worked for them and we could get it heavily
discounted or free.
The "standard" AAA membership has maximum amounts they will provide for things
like towing and roadside assistance.

Yes. 100 miles but you need AAA PLUS not regular AAA. Costs about $100 per year.

That would equal an expensive oil change. Better off buying AAA plus
for $100 per year. You get free towing for up to 100 miles.
Free towing for 100 miles? not around this part of the country.
Last time I used AAA maybe 5 yrs ago, the "free" tow was something
like 2 miles. I had to pay somet
Well, I guess my 91 350SDL is "eligible," then; bought from stealership

Don't let them scare you off. My friend got free Roadside for his
1989 560 SEC despite having never been to a dealership. They did,
however, have a record of his car for his having used Roadside 5 years
ago to fix a flat tire.

That would equal an expensive oil change. Better off buying AAA plus for $100
per year. You get free towing for up to 100 miles.

Just got off the phone to register ownership of the S500 with MBUSA.
They told me that your car is eligible for roadside assistance if you spend a
minimum of $100 every 18 months in the service department at an MB dealership.
I can't imagine that would be difficult to do...
