Default Is this worth it?

So I decided I am going to buy the premium care. It's 6yr-60k for $630 or 7yr-75k for $1155. I drive 10k a year or less. So I am leaning towards the 6 year one. Plus the price difference is almost double. So I am not sure on the premium maintance plan. It's $1155 for 6yr-60k. Or $1460 for 7yr-75k. I am not sure I would get the full benefit on it so I am thinking I might just go to ford and pay for the works every 5k miles. What you guys think? Thanks.

6 vs 7 year prices look way too different in price.

A maintenance plan is a worse investment than an extended warranty.

Yea I was going to get the 7 year plan and then I punched in for the 6 years and was like wow half the cost almost. It's the cheapest I can find from 3 online dealers.

Maintenance plan is a huge waste of money, get the premium care extended warranty instead. Two completely different things.

For premium care, it appears you are looking at $100 deductible. For 6/60 your can get $50 deductible for $50 more, 1 trip and it's paid for. Definitely stay away from the maintenance plan and let your oil monitor tell you when to change your oil. Ok, let's not go there.

Exactly right!
OP - you should be looking WARRANTY and not the maintenance plans. They are two totally different things.
