Mark,
Yes the do. Number of tows per year per person - 4. If a AAA member is
in someone else's car and it brakes down, AAA will tow it under the members
card. The regular AAA policy is something like 5 mi. for a tow. However,
the Plus plan is up to 100 mi. It really paid off when I was on a trip,
and my Van broke down 90 mi. from home. I call AAA and had the car towed
to my house. I rented a car (/w AAA's help & discount) and continued on
my trip. When I returned home, my van was sitting at my house, waiting for
me to fix her.
