    Posted: 04 Nov 2016 at 9:24am
We just purchased a 2017 RP171. Thumbs Up
We were asked if we wanted to purchase a 5 year extended warranty from Route 66. There are $100 or $200 deductible options available. I have 364 days to decide.

My question: Have others purchased / used this or a similar extended warranty? Do you feel it is a good deal? 
Thanks in Advance.

Congratulations on your new 171. We didn't go with the extended warranty from the dealer. It was way to expensive. We opted for the additional year from Forest River for $150.00. We figured an extra year for less then 50 cents a day was more our speed! :) Happy Trails!

We got the Extended Warranty from Forest River for $150 and we are glad we did. So far on the extended portion of the warranty the dealer has replaced the converter and installed a new axle with 2 new tires at no additional cost. Not bad for $150.

Thanks for the quick replies. I'll look at the Forest River warranty and wait to see if there are other replies.

Thanks again. I looked for a similar thread, but obviously I missed this one.

We opted out of the extended warranty on our 2011 177.  No issues, no problems for us and here we are nearly 6 years old (the pod, not us!)

Good Sam Club just offered us an extended warranty for like $35/month. Sounds like a good deal. Any feedback would be welcome.
