				 Benefits of MVPA/OMVA etc. membership??? 
 
			
			Hey All,
 Just thought I'd finally get around to asking, but what exactly are the benefits of being a member of the various MV vehicle organizations out there?  I can understand networking with other MV enthusiasts, but in this age of the internet, is that really a good reason anymore?  Sure you can get their publications, but again, with the 'net I don't see the benefits as well.  I've looked thru Supply Line and the like, and they seem to be more of the print versions of the websites I already have bookmarked, or print versions of how tos or articles that are answered on a monthly basis on several of the online forums out there....
 
 I've never joined in my scant years of MV ownership, but know many that have bought a membership as soon as they get their vehicles.  I'm just wondering if there is a benefit that I don't know about?  Cheaper sources of veh. insurance, discounts somewhere?  Aside from belonging, what is the draw?
 
 No slight against anyone that is a member, this isn't a rant against the groups either, it's just that I've never actually seen what the membership dues actually pay for...
 
 Tim
