Depends....are you talking about a NEW DP or an older "NEW TO YOU" RV....? Makes a difference.
Answering both sides, on a NEW DP, 2014-15, no, manufactures warranties and product warranties will take care of you. On an older coach, my experience has been they are worth every penny. If you can afford to allow your coach to sit somewhere while you save up enough money to repair it, you might be ok. We full time and cannot afford to have the coach idle for a long period of time. For me it was money well spent. I've spent about $6,000 for the policies over the past 5 years. My current policy is good for another three years. During the past 5 years, the policy has paid over $15,000 in needed repairs. You do the math and decide for yourself whether the policy is worthwhile to YOU. I carry a $50 deductible so I'm not hesitant to use it when necessary....your decision should also be based on your ability to fix things yourself. If you have to depend on someone else to do the repairs, a service policy might be in your best interest....Dennis
