Yeah, I was a mechanic before I joined the army. I hated having to deal with the aftermarket warranty people. I'd rather pay a couple bucks more to avoid the hassle. The link that 1fastsedan posted I can get 7/100k, 100 deduct and 15 oil changes for 1700. I don't think thats too bad. And that covers everything, even retal cars, towing all that.
I have seen the aftermarket warranty people do some shady crap. I had a guy bring his pickup in (dodge v10) and it had broke a piston. We had to wait 2 weeks for them to come take pictures of it, another week for them to decide if they would pay. And then they wanted to only pay 20 dollars an hour for labor, only allowe 7 hours to R&R the engine, didn't pay for diagnostics(which included pulling a head) brough us a used junk yard engine(tried to bring us 1 used piston). They also would not pay for oil or anti-freeze as these were "maintence" items.
That is just one story of many that I have, but there were many different one and most were a hassle. There are some that are good, but you never know. I think the one that was the worst was Wynn's.
I usually do all my own work, but being military now and always away from home, knowing the wife can drive in and get it fixed and drive out with no hassle is a big thing to me.
