Few weeks ago there was a man in a VERY fancy car at the Rio Grande Family Pool with a flat tire. We of course offered to assist to change the tire but were told AAA was "on the way". Drove by an hour later - he was still there, another offer to help made...and went to dinner.

Another hour and a half driving by, there he was. Would not take no for an answer, got my jack and tools and changed the tire for him (note, the car did not have a tool kit and the spare had to be inflated as is common with many newer cars).

AAA - not worth it from anyone I have ever met. Well, maybe if your car breaks down in your driveway...possibly during business hours on a weekday.
