Practical roadside assistance guidance for Wyoming and Colorado drivers
ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE COSTS IN WYOMING AND COLORADO
Roadside assistance typically adds just $5-10 per month to your auto insurance premium—that's $60-120 annually for peace of mind. Compare that to a single tow from Highway 789 to Casper (40+ miles), which could easily cost $200-400 out of pocket. One breakdown in a remote area pays for years of coverage. This add-on usually covers towing (often up to 15-25 miles per incident), jump-starts when your battery dies in Wyoming's freezing winters, tire changes on I-25, fuel delivery if you run out on a rural stretch, and lockout service when you lock keys in your truck at the trailhead.
WHEN ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE MAKES SENSE IN OUR REGION
If you drive remote Wyoming highways regularly—like Highway 789, Highway 287, or stretches between towns—roadside assistance becomes essential. Winter driving on I-25 between Cheyenne and Casper means dead batteries, slides into ditches, and getting stuck happen regularly. Older vehicles (10+ years) are more likely to break down unexpectedly. If you live more than 20 miles from the nearest town or frequently drive mountain passes in Colorado, the $5-10 monthly cost is smart insurance. Even with newer vehicles, a flat tire at night on a deserted Wyoming road makes this coverage worth every penny.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN ROADSIDE COVERAGE
Not all roadside assistance is created equal. Check the towing distance limit—15 miles might not get you from a remote breakdown to the nearest repair shop in Wyoming. Verify whether it covers all vehicles you drive or just one specific vehicle on the policy. Ask if family members are covered when driving your vehicle. Some policies limit the number of service calls per year (typically 3-6). Compare what your auto insurance roadside add-on offers versus standalone memberships like AAA—sometimes insurance-based coverage costs less and integrates with your existing policy. Most Casper families find the insurance add-on simplest and most affordable.
