manholt Report post Posted February 7, 2020 Glad it took you 5 years too come to a decision...Now, please enlighten me on what has not gone up in cost, over the past 5 years of your membership? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ggimlick Report post Posted February 7, 2020 I have to say I'm a little surprised by the reaction to the increase. Yes, it was a pretty substantial jump, but then compared to what we have invested in RV's and the associated maintenance, upkeep, etc....it's surprising the reaction. Guys with $400K rigs whining about what amounts to $13.25/mo? Seriously? There are complaints like that all over various forums. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

djsamuel Report post Posted February 12, 2020 I would agree. Considering what you get, I find the cost of membership as well as the ERS cost very reasonable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The first year with Coach-Net is $249. However, renewals are much less. The current annual renewal rate for Coach-Net is $169, but I have always received a discount for early renewal payment. In the past, I have paid as low as $139 for renewal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fagnaml Report post Posted February 13, 2020 FMCA Roadside Assistance (RSA) did increase to $160 per year on February 1 which is similar pricing to RSA from Good Sams and others. Knowing the price increase was coming, on January 30 I purchased two years of FMCA RSA for $74/year even though I have about one month remaining for my current Good Sam RSA coverage.

Could be, all I can tell you is that I paid $222 last month for three years. Maybe that's why the lady to whom I was talking said I made a "good decision."

dtbrimhall Report post Posted March 9, 2020 Well, I'm going to agree with the OP - I think the price increase was excessive, obscene, and yes . . . huge. I've had it with Good Sam and with FMCA, more an insurance policy than anything else because I've never used it. Was going to renew, but now I don't know. Too expensive/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
