I wish I had renewed my subscription. I let it lapse since my Series has been half taken apart since September. Now my neighborhood is having a 25+ year or older car show and I coulda had it towed to the town center and entered the show. 
AAA, is it worth it?

Just find someone who has a current subscription and have him or her call the tow truck....
i have had it for years.. its been a god sent a few times. have used it in various states. get it!! another perk is free maps for everywhere, travel books, and being able to walk in and do most dmv things like register your vehicle, transfers etc etc... with no wait!
Like it have had the platinum for years now.
Use it more now that the vehicles are getting older. Its helped out with family and friends who locked themselves out /needed jumps (naturally when I'm traveling with them). Long tows, travel services and discount tickets have been use many times. Though not part of the membership, but they have a state driver lic renewal window at my local office.

I have had AAA for years, if you travel, the discounts and services easily cover the cost of a Gold membership. ( well it has for me and SWMBO) Not to mention the towing... Right, Dennis? Ha Ha!
absolutely worth it... I have the premier, which has the 200mile + 5 additional 100 mile tows a year.. costs around $110/yr, and I use it on average about 3 times a year... like someone said above 'I have a Land Rover' ...
My family has it. 6 tows is enough for all four of us. It is most def worth it since generally one tow per year is needed.
Hell I was in Alabama in May when I blew the belts outta 3 tires (yes, I'm that good). AAA came and got me, no problemo.
If you own an old car/Land Rover you are dumb not to have AAA.

I have it and used it once when my D2 needed to go to the shop... Now that I have the Rangie, I have the platinum... pretty cheap insurance for these vehicles...
with a rover its like added peace of mind..hell last year at MAR after blowing out a tcase, my cousin had to have it towed back to central pa.
gotta love AAA

I used mine so many times one year they said I had to renew early that I had used up my tower... this was probably 6 months in, but at least as many tows, most of which were a good distance. I never signed up for it until it was necessary, just kept them in my contacts list on my cell just in case.
Yeah, once you sign up, you have to wait a week for it to go through the system to get the 100 or 200 miles... you're limited to 3 or 5 miles for that week. I learned that the hard way after the first time I signed up and went wheeling the next day and sunk my truck.
AAA is worth to me in NAPA discount alone; if you use hotels that give AAA discount you'll make up for it even quicker.
Their free maps are arguably the best; the out-of-country maps (cheaper than Michelin) suck but still useful.
But, by far and large, the best AAA benefit is DMV services without block-long DMV lines.
