Aside from adding light coverage (LEDs), I'm assuming I'm good to go on my diesel with PremiumCare?

this is the coverage level I have, premiumcare with LED. I have been served well by it. My truck is in the shop now. When I pick it up, this will be my 3rd visit under ESP and if my calculations are correct, it has paid for itself.

Nice, congrats! This will be my first extended warranty ever, and only my second vehicle owned more than 3 years (the last was a Tacoma, traded a 3.5 years).

If you have a second vehicle and/or don't depend on the truck for transportation or work then the rental coverages (first day and higher $ per day) are overkill. If you need your truck, then these coverages are inexpensive and could be of benefit.
You can always buy a replacement fob on-line for $80 or so and program it your self with two good fobs. Still would need to pay someone to get key cut if needed. When I bought my EW the replacement fob coverage was $80 so I decided to just buy the coverage instead of a replacement fob. Then I can have the dealer take care of everything if a loss occurs. I've never lost a vehicle key or fob before but.......

Depending on your situation you should consider rental coverage and key fob coverage.

I just bought mine Monday from Flood. Doesn't help you now, but apparently Ford's warranty prices when up 5% on Tuesday 1/6. Throwing that out there in case you're comparing to older posted prices on this site

Yeah, sadly I missed the cut off. I have until October, so not a big deal.

Lombard has the most financing options but they’re not usually the cheapest.

I just priced four different dealers, Flood, Ziegler, Lombard and Factory Direct. Factory Direct and Flood were both the cheapest on Premium ESP. Both were within $10 of each other. Flood looks to be easier to purchase online. Factory Direct requires email quote.
