AAA towing Quattro

[Ed Kellock]

I have had a Plus membership for years.

Haven't used it much at all.

The last time I did try to use it was when I rolled my first Avant late at
night.  No one came, police or anyone else.  I was able to manuever it off
the road into a driveway and then I hiked to a phone and called a friend who
came back, took me back to the car, where we found nothing, but the car.  So
we pushed it up into the parking lot and I came back the next day and called
AAA.  They flatbedded it to my mechanics shop and them refused to cover the
tow because there was no police report.  Cost me $120.   

But I still have the membership.
