What roadside assistance should I get if I have an old car and I drive through areas with no cell phone coverage?

"I have a car with around 300,000 miles on it. I'm often driving through rural and mountainous areas because I'm a photographer and avid hiker.

What roadside assistance program should I get for remote areas with little or no cell phone coverage?"
