Default question about AAA

is it really worth having? I don't understand the whole concept of it besides your car breaking down and you need towing/ gas/ or if you locked out.

how much does it cost.

I can't speak directly for AAA of Virginia, but....

I had AAA in Michigan for 5 years. It was expensive but well worth it.

My grandpa had it for about 40 years, and my dad about 20 years. They offer great towing service, and don't give you a hard time about paying out for collisions. Plus, they offer good discounts to resturants, theme parks, and hotels.

I love AAA. I had them tow my talon when i was building the engine 3 times. It didnt have a motor in the car and they didn't care.

My old trucks fuel pump went out on 495 outside of DC (i live in hampton roads) and I had them tow it to almost the limit (Fredericksburg,Va). A week later, the Autozone pump took a crap in Va Beach and AAA towed it back to my house again.

All in all, it's so worth it. The only thing that kinda sucks is they wont do accident scenes from what I have experienced.
