   Or...  Unless you get towed at least once, you've lost money.  I gave up on
   this when it was just $35.  I had no idea it was so expensive now.  This is 
   just a variant on the extended warranty scam, as far as I'm concerned.  If
   you can afford an expense, insuring yourself against it doesn't make sense.

I easily use more than $58 in services every year, what with tourbooks, 
maps, triptiks (I won't travel without 'em any more-- they beat maps by 
a mile).  If I run out of gas (not usually likely, but it happens) you 
get gas at pump cost, not $5.00/gallon.  If I get a flat, and I'm in a
suit, they'll come and change it.

And, the most important thing of all, especially for Californians--

NO WAITING IN LINE AT THE DMV!
