Thanks Vern BFL13 • View posts Victoria, BC Senior Member Joined: 02/15/2006 View Profile Posted: 03/10/10 03:33pm Link  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator Might have changed, but I signed up with Good Sam because the Canadian ones had no provision for looking after the 5th wheel, only the truck. No plan for if the trailer couldn't be towed but the truck was fine. No good to me. Good Sam does all that plus all the vehicles in your and DW's name.

Good Sam is away ahead of CAA. They have the network for getting service to you and have had it for quite a few years. CAA is better in some parts of the country than others, but it's uneven. & I, I took the road less travelled by.

Check for opinions on both and make your own determination.Reports I have seen indicate Coachnet provides exellent service in Canada. We have the basic Gold Coachnet - was $89USD to renew at the Tampa RV show in Jan. I have now dropped CAA as the Coachnet covers ALL family vehicles you own as well as all famiy members. There is an upgrade option that offers extra coverage. Their basic services significantly exceed CAA and include arranging RV service appointments in the event of breakdown. If you can do without CAA maps & Tour Guides, my opinion is Coachnet is the better option.

Truck, fifth wheel (either/or/both) are both covered for towing with the Premier RV. We haven't had to use the service with the trailer, but have used it numerous times with our other vehicles. Always prompt and courtous service. Had to use it once in Washington State when the Class C got two flats on the I-5 at midnight (heading home from an event in Vancouver WA). Again, very prompt and courteous service; driver dropped us off at a tire store where we slept until it opened in the morning. sue t.

We use Good Sam and have needed to use the service in both Canada (outside Parksville) and the U.S. (on Hwy 101 along the Oregon coast). Both times the service was friendly and fast from the operator and the towing service provider. Good Sam was a better price the last time I checked. 2005 Pace Arrow 36' 2007 Saturn Vue Toad with Brake Buddy and Blue Ox This Topic Is Closed  |  Print Topic  |  Post New Topic  |  Oldest first Newest first  Page of 3   Next Open Roads Forum  >  RVing in Canada and Alaska  > Good Sam vs CAA
