[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The dealer service package is always great- for the dealer.  I avoid these and extended warranties.  The reason I don’t like service plans is I have a good mechanic who I trust.  His shop is easier to get to and always faster than the dealer.  He is also cheaper than the dealer.  Usually service packages only cover the most routine maintenance.

Just bought a Honda and the sales guy gave me the hard sell on the extended warranty.  I told him if he thought Hondas were so bad that “I had to get an extended warranty,” maybe I should consider a Toyota.[/quote]

Todays cars, including Toyota, Honda etc are much more complex vs even five years back.  Most feature turbo engines, complex sensors, electronics.  I am a Toyota man and would never purchase an extended warranty prior, but these days, it may be a wise move to do so.   I don't have extra $$ to waste but now take all our vehicles to the dealer, even after warranty expires.  There are just too many cheap parts available (think of cheap made in china oil filter) and using the dealer insures that they are using OEM parts.   As for your mechanic, trust me, he cannot keep with all of the latest crap in car technology. [/quote]
