I will just say this on this post. You should never have to buy and extended warranty. That tells me they don't expect the vehicle to last past a certain point. If Ford had faith in their product they would have a basic warranty that was 100k miles 10 years. Not this stupid 36k or 6 years whichever comes first. I put 33,000 on my vehicle the first year. However, I have not had any major issues. All others were covered under TB. If the extended warranty is not actually through Ford I would never buy it if is through another party. To difficult getting them to follow through. Last, whether you are the first owner or second owner it shouldn't make a different if whether Ford backs up their product or not. I will have to disagree with the moderator here. The fact that someone bought it used might be the only way they could get into the specific Ford vehicle. I should not have to buy NEW to get Fords support or respect. That is just backwards thinking in my opinion and like the moderator said he can have an opinion then so can I.
