Warranty Coverage (Worth It?)

Hello,

I have never been a warranty person and have never regretted that decision.  From autos, to toys, to appliances I have never gone that route and through these 41 years of doing that I have never had a reason to say "If only I had purchased that warranty." . . .   There are others who will disagree and others who have purchased said warranty and are happy they went that route.  Our 177 is going on year 8 and I haven't had any real issues with it.  Two years ago I did purchase a couple of new tires for it as they had 20,000 miles on them and even though the tread looked like the tires were nearly new, the expiration date told me I should have retired them a whole year earlier.

I bought the Forest River extended warranty, one year for $150.00 and used it for multiple minor issues in the second year. Well worth the $150.00 but, I wouldn't have paid any more.

I will be getting my new Pod(176) in June and they offered warranty to me as well. 7 years, but it cost $2700 Canadian plus tax. I just cant justify that much extra. I have done so much research on light camper trailers, been to 3 camping shows already this year (The wife says I have a problem, haha). I have looked at the Winnebago mini drop, Jayco hummingbird and obviously the R-pod. The quality of interior and the craftsmanship of the entire R-pod is why |I chose it. there is a big difference with the trim, cabinets, counter top and edging. I bought the R-pob because of quality.
