2019 lonestar extra warranties, are they worth it?

It just depends on how much risk you want to take. You pay up front and hopefully the repairs will be under warranty or you save money now and if it needs repair then you have to pay. I was just watching a driver on YouTube. Has a new 2019 truck Freightliner truck would not regen. Had it towed to Freightliners sine it was under warranty. 4 days in the shop or 3 day waiting to get in the shop 1 day to fix. Only thing wrong was DEF frozen from extreme cold temps. Because they were home not in truck.

So the warranty did nothing they got lucky and dealer only charged $150 but still had all that down time. So the warranty are not always going to cover everything. If it a good warranty it might be worth it.

I had Freightliner with Detroit engine extra warranty. Parts and Labor for 600,000 mile. The big thing was the labor was in the warranty. They did crazy warranty work on that engine an detrDet paid for everything on the engine.

 

The cab and chassis warranty you can pass on, but I highly recommend full engine and aftertreatment warranty!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

If it's a Dealer warranty I might consider it. A third party warranty definitely not.

 

I had the option of extended warranty after factory warranty had run its course.

I chose yes. 2 weeks after I purchased it a turbo actuator was put by 2mm, they replaced the whole turbo. $8000 warranty, turbo replacement was $9500.

 

Ehh, with an International, he may want the Chassis/Cab warranty. I like International, but they aren’t known for their great electrical systems in the newer truck, and everything is multiplexed.

 

Goodness gracious!

 

Yes, for sure. I think all warranty you can buy is a good investment.

 

Depends on engine but i suggest not buying a loanstar lol get a pete or kw maybe even a glider i dont like international and i hate there engines if its the cummins it might be alright but i would still get warrenty but then again i wouldnt by that rig

 

What about a western star glider maybe from 2015 or 16 it will be cheaper and still comfy
