Joe, I have never been a fan of extended warranty's. I have read many articles in Motorhome Magazine in their help section of people fighting with their extended warranty company to pay the bill.
We were quoted $8,900 for a bumper to bumper warranty from Monaco. I took the brochure home and read it from cover to cover and I was shocked at what it DID NOT cover. We passed on the offer. Good thing we did as Monaco went bankrupt two years later and our 5yr. warranty would have been lost along with our hard-earned money.
We really have not had anything major in our almost 7 yrs. of ownership and 65,000 miles. We certainly have not spent anywhere near what the extended warranty would have cost on the few things that have needed repair (even if our repairs would be covered).
The few things that come to mind:
-new hydraulic pump for the levelers and brace added.
-3 coolant boxes (hopefully the new one is the final).
-slide computer board repair.
-large slide-out adjustment
-Aqua-Hot board replacement caused by a cracked kitchen drain hose leaking on the board.
If I remember correctly, the above was about $3,000-$3,500. If any of it was even 'coverable', I'm ahead of the game.
It is a gamble and we chose not to roll the dice.
Good luck,
MM.
