For many of us, the beginning of each year is a time to focus on new and exciting growth opportunities. AAA is here to share the journey.
More people are choosing electric vehicles to get from point A to point B, but charging infrastructure is still sporadic. To help keep pace with demand, we’ve recently added DC fast charging at several of our AAA Service Centers in Oregon and Idaho. We’re proud that we can help enable the electric vehicle road trip and ease range anxiety by making charging quick and convenient. Simply download the ChargePoint app to access your 50% member discount on charging services at our facilities.
AAA also provides mobile charging for EVs on the roadside. Our AAA service trucks can provide a Level 2 charge on the go so that EV drivers with a depleted battery can get home or to a charging station. As EV owners ourselves, my wife Missi and I share your enthusiasm about additional charging options.
Please visit our website, AAA.com/charge for information on all of our services for EV drivers. You can also find out more about the pros and cons of EVs, total costs of EV ownership and help finding the best vehicle for your needs.
No matter what kind of vehicle you drive, we’re here to help AAA members navigate the frigid days of winter with our legendary emergency road service. We are also ready to help our members who prefer to get around on two wheels. Bicyclists, please remember that AAA will also come to the rescue if you encounter difficulties along your pedal-powered commute.
Our website AAA.com/winterprep is your key to conquering slick roads and gloomy weather. You’ll find helpful tips to ensure that you, your passengers, and your vehicle are ready for cold, rain and snow.
Of course, there’s nothing like a chilly winter’s day to motivate some daydreaming about warmer destinations. I invite you to share your vacation plans with one of my AAA travel colleagues. Please visit a AAA Service Center near you or call (800) 529-3222.
The quest for a better tomorrow is both challenging and exciting. As technology advances and circumstances change, AAA is here for you, as we have been for more than a century. We’re in this together.
