I'm due to renew with GS. How do I get in touch with Coach-Net?

I believe neither Coach Net nor Good Sam will pay the roadside labor for dismounting, breaking down the flat tire and building up the new tire, and reinstallation.
So, from those of you have had a tire failure and no spare, how much should I have in the cookie jar to pay the truck mechanic who comes out with the equipment necessary to do the job?

I had GS ERS and had a blow out on my rear inside dual. Made the phone call and they got a repair service out to me. Now for the $$$$ part, the biggest expense was for the new tire, the total cost was just over $600 for one tire and that included removing from coach, put on new tire and reinstall on coach. Oh I had to use the jack to lift the tire off the ground as they didn't have a jack with them to lift the coach. GS paid for the company to come out, what I can't remember is whether they also paid for changing of the tire. This happened over 4 1/2 years ago. Gray matter is going. I currently don't have them and looking a going with Coach-net. So I would keep at least $650 to $700 in the cookie jar. Good luck.

Stevegeorgetown,

I have AAA standard road service with the RV added (not the premium service). They will bring out and mount a compatible tire, not neccessarily the same make tire, without charge. Just let them know what you want and they will attempt to bring the exact tire you request but it may have to be a compatible one if your exact tire cannot be found. I have actually had them do it. As it turned out, my tire had a leaking valve stem and they fixed that instead but had the new tire in the truck if needed. While they were out they also checked the air in all the other tires to make sure there were no additional problems. They do have towing limits though. Don't remember what they are but they will only take you to the nearest repair facillity. I think if you get the premium service package they will only tow you a farther distance.

Caa in Canada said there main buisiness is autos. So I will be going with a company that deals mainly with Rvs.

I have AAA with RV option, but will probably get the coach net gold before we get real serious. Just have not got around to it yet.

We had AAA Gold and added the RV to it for a 3 month period or until our annual fees were due. When we did get our bill for an entire year it was very high (can't remember the exact amount). I had already looked at GS and CoachNet and they were both much less expensive. Then I learned that I had to actually pay for my wife to be covered with AAA. I called AAA and ask if they would cover a roadside emergency if my adult son called them and needed assistance when he borrowed our motorhome and they said NO THEY WOULD NOT. After comparing all of the advantages and disadvantages of the three services CoachNet came out way ahead in our opinion. And yes we called Good Sam and requested that they please stop all of their junk mail to our address also.

Thank you
