from what i heard, that may not be necessary.

one dude told me, have the guy tow you 100 miles. drop you off. then call AAA for another 100 miles... until you use up all your calls... lol...

but if you are unsure about your vehicle and you travel alot, by all means, go for that 200 miler...

to me, $100 a year is cheap insurance for my 04 STi and my 17 y/o toyota truck...

i'd rather pay the extra $25 and have them tow me in one trip. esp. considering how far louis goes.
