Coach has 11k miles on it. Dealer offered a 4yr warranty for close to 4,000 covers everything but the powertrain for $100 deductible.
I'm averse to extended warranties, but it would be good to not have to stress any repairs for a few years.
Couple of questions:
1. Are these warranties worth it or should we buy aftermarket? If so, who sells these kinds of warranties?
2. Are these types of warranties voided if you're fulltiming?
I would put the $4000 in the bank just in case. Do your do diligence and or have a qualified inspector help you look over your new coach before you give them the check. They fix things a lot better before you give them your money.
