when I bought it. From memory, prices are creeping up on WD's programs,
and other brand programs. You may bump into a "no claim time" period,
due to your current warranty expiring. I would avoid a bumper to bumper
level program, as you will really pay for it.

Many here have also skipped any ext warranty and just pay as they go...
The auto trans issue(s) might give pause for considering one, however.

Whatever brand you look at, carefully study the "not covered" sections...

Good info. I have looked at Fidelity Warranties and I would want something between the Drivetrain and Platinum ..say, Gold. We are looking at close to $5k for 36,000 miles.

In reality, my biggest concern is a transmission . I am leaning hard on the pay as you go route. With the wealth of info here, I am sure I can find the best price of parts and the best way to fix problems. I am just coming off my 03 with CPO and pre-paid maintenance and that really did give a lot of peace of mind.
