I bought an extended warranty on the last RV and I quickly canceled it due to the fact that I was in Lufkin, TX last winter and could get no service. It wasn't a bad package, I read all the what is/not covered before I bought it but it did me no good last winter. YMMV
as noted, read the coverage and the responsibilities the owner has to keep the coverage in force .... while attending an RV show in March one of the dealers was giving RV Warranty Forever coverage with every camper purchased at the show .... needless to say, that was causing quiet a stir .... when I read the info they were giving out, they made it clear that to keep the coverage in place yearly inspections and service, paid for by the customer, from a "Qualified Dealer" had to be performed .... the number one thing on the list of what had to be inspected was the roof and all caulking .... guess what, the roof wasn't covered in the warranty .... I have no clue what the yearly inspection would cost but from the list it would have to be several hundred dollars .... in short, the RV Warranty Forever is very selective about what it covers and is little more than a cash cow for the dealership .... to see for yourself, check out their website and look at the "What's Covered" and "Maintenance Requirements" links given Jim
