| hi my truck (volvo vn 670)is just inching close to 256 k miles/400,000 km and warranty is soon to run out and i get regular phone calls from the national extended warranty sales team to get their warranty, so far i have had good luck and no break downs but now i am concerned and want to get the safety net of extended warranty, so any suggestions ,opinions or reviews are welcome .... thanks. |

I don't have first hand experience, but I can try to help you out.
I do know with cummins warranties, if you turn it down to 450 hp or less, the extended warranty is MUCH cheaper. Ask about that. |

| Find out who pays for the teardown. I saw one company that charges you up front and reimburses you if it's covered. |

You are right! the extended warranty is virtually half the cost just by turning the Cummins down to 450. Won't really notice a real performance hit going from 475 to 450. You can still set the torque to a good working level. |
