As long as AAA's politics (whatever they may be) are not detrimental to the
towing or services of my Westy, I will continue with AAA.  In the past 9
years I have called AAA for towing four times with no problems or
exclusions to report (Once in Oregon, once in Kansas and twice in Southern
California).  Because mine is an automatic, I had no problem getting
"flatbed" service either.  Can't beat the free maps, camping guides, dmv
services, etc.  I just renewed and I am ultra-happy with them.

My nickel's worth, YMMV
