I have had dealers across the country change my oil in my Silverado without issue. If you tell them you are from out of town they will try to get you in and out quickly.

It's painless really.

I have had an equalizer hitch for about 15 years and it easily has a better part of 100,000 miles on it with out issue. That failed for a reason-either metal fatigue or over loaded hitch weight.

AAA is correct in this circumstance. If you read the tow policy off road isn't covered, you can have a tow truck operator make an exception-but it's against coverage terms.
