I'm with Sprocket, though I did pop for WarrantyDirect's deal 4 1/2 years
ago, when my oe warranty expired; WD deal was much less pricey then,
but all I ever had covered was belt pulley dampers and TA bushings...
Certainly not worth the expense, but I suspect I have been just lucky.

When WD kept calling to pitch me on the "re-up", I considered it but took a Pasadena.
'01 3.0 manual trans Sport still running strong. I may have it a lot longer, unless the crap
really hits the fan, or I hit a lotto.

But, I realize a warranty of some kind, for many, is a desirable safety net, and we all have
to decide what works for our own situ.
