AAA covers any car that you’re in. That’s 1.

1. What if you aren’t local to your friend? He ain’t gonna bail your ass out then is he?

I have AAA Plus. Haven’t used it yet, but I know when I need it I’ll be good to go.

I’m all for being fiscally responsible but dude…how cheap are you? That’s like pennies a day. Don’t buy a 6-pack next time and instead put that money into a jar for AAA. Or if you don’t drink, don’t buy something else you don’t need.

The one time you break down far from your friend and home, you’re going to think of this thread.
