CAA WILL NOT help once they hear that the vehicle has been off road we tried that to start with but turned us down.....

Post by: WhiteOut on June 09, 2009, 12:01:58 PM: Same, they towed me from Waiparous last year while I was covered in an inch of mud and gushing fluids. The AMA Gold is the best, 5 calls a year and free 160km towing.

Yep, that's false. I got flat-decked back from the McLean store last fall with absolutely no problems, and I can list probably a half-dozen other people who have been carried back to the city by CAA from wheeling spots. The driver said it happens all the time. I have a CAA plus membership.

Well i guess when they collected me from Waiporous, i must have dreamed it.
When they collected me from the Rock course at federal metals it was another dream.
And yet one more dream to come get the jeep from Rocky Mountain House.
Oh yeah, one more when i got a buddies jeep towed home from Radium. ;)

i think you may have gotten improper info? ???
The only reason i got CAA originally was for my jeep.
As long as i got the jeep to a road (ie 940, Maclean Road,etc) they showed up.

i did have the gold or RV plus membership though.
