Default Factory extended warranty worth it?

Just picked up my 2017 Raptor and was considering the extended warranty from the dealer. Any purchased it? Is it worth it for this truck ... being so new?

I'm waiting. No real advantage to buy it right away to me.

Default $1000 is a great deal

Like Scrap, I'll wait too. Dealer offering me 3 grand for upto 100k miles. They wouldn't give a break. Anyone else got better offer?

Why would you buy a extended warranty ,when Ford can't/ won't even fix something under their regular warranty,pile of problems people have and Ford let's people Rot.

Many threads on this. Odds are with the dealer/Ford, not the consumer. If you do buy, online dealers blow away pricing.

Oh My... This is my first Ford. I hope Ford will not treat their customers that bad. They have great products and they need great service.

Try flood ford online.

I was looking at 7 year, 75k miles for 850ish. With a 50 or 100 deductible

You don't have to purchase from the same dealer that sold the truck? Ok. I will contact Ford tomorrow when they open back from MLK holiday. 850 sounds reasonable to get extra protection. So far the truck is a dream to drive...

Nope. Any ford dealer can sell the Ford ESP.
