Extended warranty or not.

Extended warranties are just like any other insurance. You are betting something will need repair, the warranty company sets their fees to cover the likelihood you will not and to make a profit.

I suspect you have life insurance, insurance on you home, car, perhaps even a home warranty program. Only you can decide if it is worthwhile, I decide not; but it is inaccurate to state they are a rip off. Many are offered by reputable companies that provide a fair service.

I agree. I had an extended warranty through a company called Continental. If I would not have used my warranty I would have been refunded all, but 300.00 of the price I paid. I used the warranty several times so I didn't get a refund. Could I have fixed the things myself cheaper ? Yes, but not out on the road. I am not sorry I had it if nothing more than piece of mind.
