Extended service plans?
I have a 2019 F250 with the 6.7. It is just getting to turn 36000 miles. I plan on keeping the truck another 5-6 years putting about 13k per year. Is a extended service plan worth the costs and if so who and where/how much did you purchase?

A lot of people on here recommend Flood Ford. Just shop around, that is one of those things that dealers can do whatever they want. Worth? That depends, I had a couple of power fold/extend mirrors replaced on my truck, at 1200+ each it worked out. Read the fine print, a lot of things you would think are covered aren't, such as a high pressure fuel pump. I plan on purchasing one when I buy my new truck or very soon after.

If you never made a claim against the ESP for your 2017, you can get a partial refund and apply it towards the 2022. 'Tis what I did.

How far out is everyone pushing these? I would assume until 150k/8yrs to get the longest coverage possible?

Being transferable, it could help with resale value down the road.

Buy the coverage that makes sense for your use. For me, based on how many miles I average per year, 8yr/100k miles. Realistically I would probably be fine with the 8yr/85k miles. Only an example, but someone who puts 30k miles a year on their truck might want a 5yr/150k mile warranty

I have a 2019 drw 350 and I just purchased it used from a Toyota dealership, it has 60k miles. After I purchased the truck I brought it to the local Ford dealership to inquire about a Ford extended warranty, they had me sit with their finance guy. 4k, 5 years 48k miles. Seemed pretty steep to me, especially considering that I have the STX. It doesn't have all the options like many others.

Check your food pass app for the guys that bought used. After turning down the dealer offered warranty I was home setting up the app. And noticed in the warranty section under esp there are two policies listed. I called customer service and sure enough they go with the truck not the person who purchased them.
You used truck guys might get lucky like I did.
I’ve never made a claim nothing claim so in can’t attest to how they handle things.

They seem to be about the same or slightly higher than flood.
Looks like the best chance for these to pay off is a continuation of the factory bumper to bumper warranty?

I’ve used it 1 time, and it paid for itself. To me, it’s a no brainer.
