Extended Warranty or not

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Our Cruiser's two year warranty expired last August.  In July, I purchased the Xtra Ride extended warranty.  I have six extra years of coverage.  Matter of fact, XR just paid over $400 to repair a leaking black tank. For something with so many parts that rolls bouncing down the road I feel it is a good investment.

	I thought about the protective coating too but glad I did not do it. I find all you need is a good wash and wax one or two times a year to keep the gel coat looking good. With that money you can buy a lot of wax and hire someone to do it.

	On our last two Crossroads trailers I did not worry about an extended warranty until after the factory warranty was up. No use paying for something you don't need for the first two years. Edited by Hunter11 - 20 Mar 2012 at 3:11pm

	Just purchased a 2012 ST24RB and will be picking it up in 6 weeks. It comes with a standard 2 year warranty but I know they are going to discuss an extended warranty when we pick it up and sign the papers. Any thoughts on whether it would be a good idea or not? Sorry, don't know the price yet. Also, they suggest we spend $850.00 for a protective coating for the exterior. It comes with a 5 year warranty. Any thoughts on that? Thanks for your help.
