For the OP, I would hold off for now considering the age of your coach and the multiple warranties of a new coach but something you might want to consider is that a lengthy coverage term now might have a lower overall cost then when the coach is three years old and the OEM coverage has expired. A bit like life insurance. Low cost when you're young but hit the magic number and the policy doesn't appear as cost effective as you might like.
Extended service agreements are a pretty personal item and I think Dennis spelled out the pros rather well. For the full timer a contract might be pretty high on the must haves while the weekender not so much. Any current and future owner who is considering the purchase must read very carefully, or even seek out professional third part assistance, the coverage details. Know what you are buying and what you are not. Take notes in particular what is not listed. It it's not there it's not covered. Nothing is implied in these contracts.
Personally, at the moment I have no use for one. I'm still just a weekender, coach is in my driveway and I'm in good enough health to make repairs as needed and as my budget allows.
