My advice is to read the extended warranty before you buy it. Do NOT rely on the salesperson to tell you what is covered. Too many take the salesperson's word and wind up disappointed. Find out exactly what is covered, what your deductibles would be, what is the process to get something covered and where are repairs authorized. Then decide if what they are asking is worth the coverage offered.
The consumer help columns in the RV magazines every month have sad tales of woe from folks not reading the fine print and expecting coverage of items that are excluded or they didn't follow the repair procedures and so their claim was denied. There are also stories of folks following the letter of the contract and still finding their claim denied because the warranty company is avoiding their responsibility.
For me extended warranties aren't worth it. I'd rather bank the money and save it for if and when I need it down the road.
