The option for renewal came in the mail today, but I'm not sure if I should get it or not. It came for free for 3 years with the Falcon.
Has anyone actually used it? Is it just the RACV that comes out? $165 for 3 years of peace of mind doesn't sound too bad... |

I have used it for my last car, XR8 ute. One day would not start. Racv turned up. I think is a good idea.

I had to use it the other day when my battery went flat. RACV guy came out within 10 minutes. I was very impressed! If the rate is cheaper than the RACV rate then I'd say go for it. You get the same people coming out anyway.

Its the best 165 bucks you will spend..
Basic RACV membership is $71, (rumored to be an increase in 2007). Ford Assist has benefits which are not available on RACV basic jobbie, you have to up-size to the $120 extra care to get similar features...
