Extended warranty
(Preview)
Can anyone suggest a company that will cover our Ford F250 with an extended warranty. It's 5 years old and in great condition. The companies I've already contacted only cover vehicles that are still under manufacturer's warranty or under a dealer's warranty. Thank you. Regards Ynot
