Thank you for taking the time to really lay it all out on the table (without making the decision for me). After giving it much thought I've decided not to buy the warranty. :yup: I understand that it's a gamble either way, but I do have the discipline to put the money in an account and leave it there in case I need it. Hopefully I won't need it, but knowing it's there will give me the peace of mind that spending that same money on the warranty would have (but the money is still mine). Funding my next down payment with that cash if I don't have to spend it works for me, too. The only problem I've had is the PTU and after three tries the dealer replaced the whole thing. That was over 10K miles ago and all has been fine since. I don't drive like an 18 year old guy and I'm faithful about taking it in for service when it's due. Thanks again!

OK so after pondering your comment maybe I take that cash and put it in an interest bearing CD. Then I leave it there until I have a problem. Not bad advice and it would certainly be easier to move it from my savings account to a CD.

Hi. This is my first post here, but I have found many interesting things in this forum. I am looking to purchase the Ford ESP for my 2008 Edge Limited AWD. I have 32,500 miles so I'm feeling the need to purchase it very soon. I haven't had any problems with my car but intend on keeping it for a while (and possibly passing it down to a new driver in a couple of years). Anyway, purchasing directly through Ford is hundreds of dollars more than through either Troy Ford or Broadway Ford. I'm not local to these dealers but they both have good BBB ratings and I've seen them mentioned in other posts. Does anyone here have direct experience with purchasing Ford ESP through either of them? I'd appreciate any feedback. Thanks!
