Wondering what any are doing for (Reliable) extended warranty policies?
2023 (Never titled) Catalina legacy travel trailer. 32 ft. With all the bells and whistles.
 
Generally a warranty will only benefit you if you take it to a service center and leave it. Out on the road, mobile techs struggle to get paid and refuse warranty work. I know we did. There are some that seem to make it work. I have met people that have cancelled their warranty and people that love them.....YMMV
 
" Reliable" is not a word ordinarily associated with anything an RV dealership is trying to tack on to the sale. Extended warranties are mostly just predatory back end gimmicks designed to generate profit for the dealer and the provider. Save your money and use it if you actually require a repair somewhere down the road. If it's new on a dealer's lot it should come with a warranty.
 
Note had to edit this:
Insurance always seems like a scam to me, especially when it's tied to what if's for bad RV construction not wear and tear and environment issues. But... I'd like to think it's worth it when I'm only in it @ $145 month for two years - peace of mind - for a total of four years coverage. And must prove that I've done all the strict maintenance on it until the bitter end or any claim could be denied.
 
Consumer's Voice which supplies those ratings is a lead generation, pay to play, site. When you see a " Get a quote" window, you should beware. Like Amazon, whoever pays the most gets the most.
Exactly why I said "for what it's worth".
