I'll just throw in a little superstition of mine now... =)

I've got AAA Plus purely for the "ward off evil" factor.  Normal AAA
towing is to AAA approved garage nearest disablement.  Plus gives you
100 miles off towing.  Nice to be able to get your car to a garage
you trust.

I got this after some bastard garage in massachusettes killed my car.

Haven't needed the 100 miles yet, but I figure it's because the fact
that I have AAA Plus wards off the need =)
