Very sad indeed... I have less than a thousand left to reach the same 50K. I called about extending the warranty and it will cost me a little over 5 grand for an additional 4 years and 100,000 miles. It's financeable up to 19 months and @ 0% interest. Also, there is a deductible of $500 every time you bring it in for repairs. So lame...

Wow, that's a great deal. I was given the option of a $250 or $500 ded. I'm sure you can go $50 but the warranty price will be that much more. If you have the funds, then go as low a ded as possible.

Also, I would like to point out that it's not an ADDITIONAL 100,000 miles... it's up to 100,000 miles from where you currently are. I was unclear in my last post.
