Good Sam needs to proof their ads

Most recent issue of trailer life....i was shocked I have been filling the wrong tanks with propane. Leveling Jack is debatable but they located the air conditioner without issue. Just poking fun btw...Click image for larger version

I saw that also. Laughed about propane and holding tanks both stink so easy to confuse.

Yep. If I wasn't a lifetime member of good sam I'd drop out. Lost Highways magazine, called ERS twice and never got service and cw prices are not the deal they used to be.

I just signed up for roadside before one of our big trips.... This is not encouraging.

That is disturbing...I've been paying for GS ERS for years, never had to use it but it's unsettling to know they don't help you when you call. x2 re: CW...almost always find whatever I'm looking for cheaper somewhere else and the shipping break is way too high.

I didn't mean to alarm anyone. Many have had excellent service with ERS. The first time I called from I30 in Arkansas, they said, after 20-30 mins on the phone that it would be 2-3 hours before anyone could come out. This was at 5pm. I paid a local tire shop to change the flat after limping in on a blowout.
Last year, on I49 in north LA, I called after s flat. Gave exact location on i49, crossroad and exit number. They couldn't find it on "their map." Kept asking if I had crossed into Texas yet. I-59 does not go they Texas. That's been my experience. I let ERS expire this month and will seek other coverage.

You are correct. The mag's editor printed the ad as received. Same with sign painters. If you, in error, submit a grammar or spelling mistake on your sign, the sign maker will fill your order as submitted.
That's why you see so many apostrophes on words that are simply plural. Plural possessives are also a bug-a-boo (as in Joneses').
