Still cost less than a Toyota!
The $85 Tow charge was money that could have be spent on a AAA membersinip.
I know my AAA membership has paid for itself. Towed ounce last year and got the keys locked inside of the car ounce; AAA paid 100% for both. Solving either one of the problems would have cost more than the AAA annual membership.
If you wear corrective lenses you also get a discount on Eye Exams.
