That was what the Toy Finanancial Services wanted, Thier aftermarket version was $3500 but gave me a discount due to my superior charm (either that or I didn't argue at MSRP).

We buy Toyota presumably because of quality and longevity.
Extended warranties always have a significant negative expected value. It's like buying equities that you know will, on average, have a negative return.

) few may end up saving money.They don’t say what transmission.
The non hybrid has a different 8 speed than the hybrid. The trans on the hybrid is a all new 8 speed model.

I can't understand ......... Most people have health insurance, most have life insurance and it's mandatory you have vehicle insurance...... mainly due to the catastrophic cost IF something were to happen. It's wonderful some folks don't like extended warranties........ some of us do so, why bash the process.

An extended warranty is an insurance policy. All insurance policies provide the same core value: peace of mind.
You’re not buying it for financial benefit. Unless it’s a life insurance policy and you expect to die during the term. In that case you are tax planning, which is a financial reason. Can you tell I worked for an insurance company? Lol.

Same warranty here, got it for "employee pricing" they said $1,300 couldn't really pass that up.

Dang and I thought I got a killer deal..... LOL
The guy trying to sell me the $4995 extended warranty told me the transfer case was not included in that. Seemed odd, since it is needed for the front wheel drive system to work..
Nissan Xterra had the same problem sometime ago.

This is interesting, as I was under the impression, short of the DC motor and associated clutches forward of the transmission, they were the same 8-speed internally...
