We just purchased our first NEW travel trailer...Outback 323BH...Boss Lady wants to keep this until the kids are gone. Now, mind you, we have had our fair share of problems with our other, which was purchased used, but when the sales lady asked about the warranty, wife was inclined to say yes....I told her to hold off so I could consult the folks here and have a round table discussion.....The company they use is EasyCare. I did not ask for prices, but I can on Friday when I am back up there. She said that they are somehow mingled with Ford...I did not really pay attention to this one point, but she did say that as long as we get it before our warranty is up, it will be as a new travel trailer. Any thoughts to this company or another one that may be better?

Thanks,

take the money you would have spent for the warranty and start a repair fund and then add $X each month to that fund. use it for routine maintenance, major repairs...whatever you like...once the initial warranty period ends. we did that back in 2000 with our new MH and we are dollars ahead.
