    Not unless they go above and beyond....no.

    Yes if he/she did something extra that isn't included in my service plan, otherwise no. I'm surprised that people are paying for towing. With most roadside service plans, which are combined with auto insurance you don't pay a dime to be towed.

    I tipped a guy and his buddy $5 each for helping get my keys. They stayed a long time and didn't complain once. Great guys, they deserved more.

    No, not typically and only if you wanted to. The fact he was expecting one would be reason enough not to. THey make a decent living.
