It is very pricey but apparently exhaustively inclusive. Does anyone have it? Do you think it is worth it especially with the extension of the mft coverage?

Take $2,000 in small bills ($20's...$50's....and $100's) and stuff it in your sock drawer. Never to be touched except for unscheduled repairs. In the end, you'll (most likely) come out ahead and none of your "claims" will be denied, nor the "carrier" go out of business.

If you want extended warranty coverage why not go with the Ford ESP? Recognized by all Ford dealers in North America.
Also, I think I would prefer to have Ford trained techs working on my Explorer, especially with all the electronics in it.
