I went for the AAA Plus membership, which gives you a 100 mile free tow. 
It worked out well when the ignition lock failed on my '72 BMW 2002 on a 
perfect powder day in Breckenridge, 97 miles from home. Good thing I 
didn't go to Vail. I insure all my cars, old and older, with USAA using 
replacement policies. I don't know, but Hagerty might have frowned on 
"ski wagon" as a use for my classic BMW. :)
