I've never been a fan of extended warranties... the biggest winner is usually the one issuing it. The shylock... er, purveyor and you will be placing a wager with each other... they that you will experience so few covered costs that it is enticingly impossible for them to not offer you "protection"; you that the vehicle is such a piece of crap that you will easily recoup the cost of the plan.

Save your money and buy a vehicle you trust, or better yet, (no offense intended... honest! :o) one you can afford! While no guarantee, if the car has consistently run well in the past (no major uh-ohs!), was maintained well and not beaten to death, it is not unreasonable to expect continued reliability. sure there will be some aw-sh*ts along the way, but

If you do insist on "protecting" yourself though, read the fine print carefully to determine precisely what is and is not covered, and who is allowed to perform the work and authorize the repairs.

My (overpriced) 2¢,

Paul
