Any Recent Roadside Assistance Experience?

Anybody put in any calls for help in the last year?

We've had Good Sam Roadside Assistance for many years (11?) and are completely satisfied with it.  We've had two RV tire issues -- one quite remote and the guy was there within 30 minutes -- and two personal vehicle tows.  All incidents were handled quickly and professionally.  However, I'm hearing more and more that people are no longer happy with Good Sam.  With nothing in the last few years to go on, I'm wondering if renewing is a good idea.  We're considering moving to FMCA, Coach-Net, or RV Advisor.  Pricing is close enough to not matter and each has a slightly different mix of offerings, but the big thing is to come get this big beast going again in a timely and responsible manner.

AAA is a state by state franchise, each state offers its own towing plan and other states do not have to honor their plan. So Texas AAA could offer limited RV towing and Arkansas only offer 10 miles of towing for RV's and you are screwed.
AAA is the worst deal for RV towing!
