warranty question

i bought my truck as the second owner at a bout 18k miles. apparently the first owner left it with basic warranty of 3 yr 36k miles. i'm a bout to reach the 36k point and was wondering if buying an extended warranty was worth the money? roughly $50 to $60 a month?

I bought the dieselcare plus warranty on the engine. The rest of the truck I wasn't worried too much about. I found the ESP plan from Ford is not bumper to bumper. Too many exclusions and the parts that are covered are ones that rarely if ever break.

If you are just worried about the engine, international has a 100k/5yr warranty on the engine.
