Re: Extended warranty?

["Peter Loron" <peterl@cnw.com>]

I've been very happy with my Warranty Gold (http://www.warrantygold.com)
policy. You can get it just about any length you want. They cover loads of
stuff and have pretty slick benefits. One of the coolest things is that you
can take the car to any reputable repair service to get it fixed. You pay a
$50 deductable per visit and WG pays the rest immediately...you don't pay
the whole thing and get reimbursed. I've almost paid for the extended
coverage with only 2 repairs...I think it's totally worth it to get one.
