save the extra $800, its not worth it, they will replace stuff with junk remanufactured parts.

Re: I need advice
Well I got new plugs, wires, cap, rotor and NEW GAS! I am now officially impressed. It’s a fast truck. It has smooth hard acceleration. The transmission shifts hard. There sure is a lot of ticking and knocking coming from the engine when it idols. I was told most of it is injector noise. I let it run and tried too hear noise coming from any of the cylinders. I could hear nothing. The only time you can hear it is when Im in the truck.

Warranty is a joke. I helped my dad buy a minivan for work and he did the same thing spent an extra 800 dollars on a warranty that gave him hell. The tranny crapped out about three months later they told him we only pay out a max of 250 dollars a YEAR. Totally bull shit but he made out. Every year for three years i put in a claim so he could get his money back. It worked but what hell it was. The only thing i recommend is to start reading this forum , use the search it is fantastic and helpful. ALso get ready to hate the truck when you get bangs and bruises trying to fix them. But then again put a smile on your face when you are enjoying them. Welcome and congrats.:tup:

Re: I need advice
I guess I really cant see where I can go wrong here. I pay a one time $800; that’s it......
I get $3,000 for engine, $2000 for transmission, $1500 for transfer Case, $75 for towing, $100 for car rental. I called the company myself and tried to find to loop holes and understand it better. Seems to be pretty strait forward. Maybe they will even let me take it to a reputable shop for repairs and I could pay a little extra to get the quality fix I want. Thank you guys for your concern. I guess time will tell.
