    Did you have a question on it or just a general question? Gonna say it is no more different than any other major truck.

    I knew a guy that had a new Volvo with their extended warranty. I was surprised when he said they have engine hours limit on their warranty. I had Detroit with 600,000 miles parts a labor warranty, no engine hour limit. So basically on the Volvo engine if you idle a lot you could run out of warranty before any miles limit was reached.

    Volvo extended warranty is a per component warranty.

    I paid for the extended warranty on my volvo and only used it once. It actually was a good truck as far as emission trucks go, tho I would be scared to own one out of warranty.

    Most newer Volvos are iShift (automatics) and the warranty on the iShift is 750k. Personally I think it's pretty phenomenal.

    I have had little trouble owning a Volvo out of warranty for the last several years. Averaging about $20k in maintenance costs per year, that is everything including trailer and all tires.
