Sorry.......I've called AAA a few times and it's always been 2 hrs +.........Just a few weeks ago, my 73.5 melted an MSD Blaster Coil......Was 10 miles from home.......After I called and waited a 1/2 hr......a trooper rolls up and sez expect over a 2 hr wait as he just dealt with them down the road.....I call my wife to bring truck and tow strap......Tow 10 miles......Home having a cold one when AAA calls me back and sez upgrade the one hour estimate to 2 + hrs.............Fark them..........

Must be something wrong w/me...after what happened at Home Depot, I locked myself outa my house yesterday afternoon. Locked all the doors and went into garage to leave...no Abarth & house keys...wtf? Found a way to get into poolside door...else would have had to call locksmith.
Dementia at 68 yrs. old? Need to pay more attention, I guess.
