Route 66 Insurance Experience?

I am looking at a 2005 X5 with 66,600 miles. It is a 4.8is.

I got a quote today from my credit union from Route 66 for MBI insurance. The policy is the "main street" The price they quoted was fantastic, 48 mo / 48k mile, $2,323. That's about half of what I was quoted from other vendors.

The only issue is that I am not sure that it will cover the most troublesome issues, one of which being the pneumatic air ride suspension. The covered components list seems pretty short but sufficient???

Can any users with experience with Route 66 chime in for me?

Basic policy is attached for review.

It appears that no shocks or struts are covered. I would save the cash and just put it towards maintenance.

Pretty sure I am over $10,000 this year in repairs so I would vote yes. Mine is a 2006 4.8is and had about 25k on it when I purchased it last year. I have heard of Route 66 but I haven't had any dealings with them. I do think they are reputable though. Personally when it comes to warranties the key is making sure it covers as much as possible and then use it as much as you can...
