One thing you need to think about is how long you will keep the Hummer. Seems like most people stated their other autos are generally 2-3 years models, sounded like most do not keep the same vehicle for too long. I bought 6 yr/72K extended warranty, but why do I want 6 yrs if I mostly likely will change to a new Hummer max 3-4 years later.
Extended warranty starts after the standard 3 yrs warranty ends. I paid $2200 which will be totally empty and useless for 3 years. So what if I have a $3000 repair job 4th year, I am not ahead financially.
If h2fan is thinking about spending real money on a viper with no room for kids, h2fan has the profile of a guy who most likely will not be driving the same Hummer 3 years later. Then why buy a 5 years warranty? Use car buyer is not going to pay you much, if any extra for the warranty.
Basic on this logic, my 6 yrs/72K $2200 warranty is a waste of money.
$2200 + $900 (3 yrs service contract) + $3000 (options I have but no need) = total wasted $6,100. Hind sight is 20/20.
