The primary reason I've been using AAA Plus is that, in contrast to the basic plan, it covers motorcycles and RVs. I've always wondered if they would bother travelling down a dirt road for a pickup, but I've never had to call them. I'm considering swicthing as my renewal approaches. I was drawn to AMA's service because my insurance does not cover roadside assisstance for bikes. Has anyone here used it for a roadside assistance or tow? I'm curious how it turned out
 
My understanding is that AAA's roadside assistance is generally for vehicles that can be safely reached from a normally traveled or established thoroughfare. About getting assistance from a deep dirt road, it's hard to tell and it really depends on the specific AAA club's policy and the tow truck operator's discretion regarding safety and accessibility. As for AMA, I've heard mixed reviews. Others have reported issues with long wait times or difficulty finding a tow. It's a tough call because a good experience can vary greatly by location and the specific tow company that gets dispatched.
 
I haven't really used AMA myself yet, but Ive heard from a lot of folks that they're pretty good with motorcycles and willing to go offroad if needed too. If your insurance doesnt cover bike roadside help, switching to AMA just makes sense
 
AAA can be a hit and miss for this and I thing it's a regional thing. I know some people who've gotten help in some conditions, while others didn't. I'm talking about some off road trails and stuff like that, so nothing extreme.
