Keep'em rolling........

Wow, are there now two TM owners on the road with greyhounds? We have three, and I would not leave them without rescue under any circumstance. We had been told when we used AAA (by the dispatcher) that only essential personnel would be transported, and everyone else would have to wait for another form of transport ( a taxi, I guess?) They meant ONLY the driver and towed vehicle, while the rest of the family and the dogs found their own way. When the driver showed up, he was helpful, friendly, and not about to leave any of us even though it meant a mighty crowded tow truck. He also told us he would take us to any location we wanted within reason despite the dispatcher telling us we would only be taken to the nearest AAA listed repair shop. We didn't have the trailer at the time, so it was just our Suburban that needed moving, but what a frightening thought if the dispatcher had been right.
I have been looking to unload AAA ever since. I think I'll switch to Good Sam.

This is in Arizona, of course. I know it's better some other places.

By the way Senorsedona, is your dog a GAL adoptee? All of ours are, and we are obviously "chippers" with three. Only our house won't hold more, our hearts always will.
