Coach net or other option.
Ok here is the open question. My first year to coach net was free and came with my purchase. It time to renewed or commit to another option such as Good Sam.
I have AAA for the wife ( in case I'm not around). I'm keeping that for everyday use. And I've herd more negitive than possative about there rv upgrade. That said I'm trying to decide between coach net and good Sam. Other options are out there yes. But before beating this choice past thanksgiving. If you had to pick one of the two mentioned. Which would you pick ?
Thanks for your opinion

I'm going to stick with Coach-Net. I'm staying away from anything Camping World. I got the shaft on a extended warranty from Camping World

Staying with Good Sam. Have heard far fewer complaints with them than any others.

I would recommend Coach Net. We are still on our free year. They really took care of us when we needed help on our first big trip this year.

I was happy with coach net service in one incident during our first year. We went with good Sam platinum coverage because it covers my car and two cycles in addition to the RV so no need for AAA...at a good price. IMO either company is fine depending on price and the coverage you need.

CoachNet. Much better for us than Good Sam. Assistance with items other than just towing and right there when we needed them for towing.

Coach-Net gave us quick service for a bad tire. I will stick with them.

I've stuck with Coach-Net since I got my first TT. One fee also covers the family cars. Never had to use it for my TT, but a couple time for the car. They did a great job on the times I called them. Much cheaper than AAA.

I renewed with CoachNET. I had one situation where my SUV's battery.died while I was working inside the TT. I called CoachNET to get a jump. Because I wasn't connected to the TT they wouldn't come. Had to call AAA. I did some checking and not being connected to the TT is a common default. Other than that, I have been satisfied with CoachNET.

We've had Coach-Net for a couple of years. We haven't had to use the emergency road service. By the way, you don't need both Coach-Net and AAA. Coach-Net will also provide road service for all your personal vehicles and family members.

We like Good Sam for a couple of reasons. First they cover all our vehicles and trailers. Most services won't cover a boat trailer, Good Sam does. Second, I asked our dealer service manager who he wanted to work with. I expected him to refer me to SOB the dealership sales. Instead he said Good Sam. Since we do all our planned service there I took his advice. So far so good.

I had AAA RV Plus for a few years. The one time I tried to use them they were no help. I had a flat on my fifth wheel. I changed the flat and proceeded on. About 5 miles down the road another tire blew, now I don't have a spare. To make it short, they said there was nothing they could do if I did not have a spare to put on. They did not even try to help find someone to help even if I had to pay for it myself. I promptly got rid of AAA RV Plus.
Fast forward. With the fifth wheel we bought in 2012 we got a free year of Coachnet that we didn't use. I did renew to the plan that covers the RV and our cars. I got my truck stuck in my driveway after a 30 inch snow. I called Coachnet and told them I was home and safe so they could wait until the next day if they were busy. They were busy but there was a truck there within an hour to pull me out, no charge.
I will stick with Coachnet.

Coachnet was a life saver for us. Our truck water pump failed on a rural 2 lane highway with no shoulder to pull off in Wyoming. We walked to the top of the hill (1 bar) and called for help. Coachnet immediatelycontacted the Highway patrol who arrived within 20 minutes and a wrecker service 15 minutes later. The wrecker service sent 2 trucks to tow both our truck and fifth wheel 20 miles to the next town. The Coachnet operator was very professional and was concerned for our safety. What could have been a horrible experience was added to our growing list of RV adventures. Strongly recommended!

Have had CoachNet for many years. Had one tow (years ago) over 75 miles, large Class A. They sent out correct tow truck (three axle) and all handled very well.
I also got a free year with new motorhome. Called CoachNet and they combined my current membership with new one. Free membership is for basic service (somewhat limited) but there are other levels. Might check with them and find you can drop AAA and save some money.
