DRYCREEK; Fine. he got the "Extended Service Plan". THAT was the OPs option. Gotta read the fine print....question: Was the fine print available? Should have been somewhere......
And yes....I too vote with my pocketbook. A company "rips" me...I go elsewhere.
With CN, they gave me "free" for one year after I purchased my new motorhome. I stayed with them. ROAD SERVICE. I think 2 versions of that. That is what I wanted, that is what I got. "Extended Service..." frankly, am unaware that CN even offers that. (my bad?) I just get a annual notice from CN that my policy (ROAD SERVICE...that covers all my vehicles including the motorcycle) is up for renewal..and I renew it. On-line. Needed them 3-4 times with the motorhome (4 times with my cars...mostly tire problems) in the past 16 years...NEVER a problem. Both the person on the phone and the road service folks....excellent. Totally professional.
I think sometimes people are actually intimidated by "insurance/extended" plans (that are very expensive...then they find out that what broke is not covered)...I prefer to simply put that money in the gas tank and travel. So far...so good. My $1300 replacement fridge, in my mind, seems alot cheaper than the $2400 "extended warranty" plan offered to me. These high profit plans might work IF one needs it (did the motor fall out?)....I would guess not many really do..to some, "security" is everything. I guess it's up to you, eh?
See you on the road!
