Who has the best extended warranty? Any opinions on what not to buy? I will only be putting approx. 5000 miles per year on an 04 coupe.It will be winter stored.

Ken Fichtner has the best prices on GMPP. I would check into that before any others.

IMO with that kind of mileage and summer driving, I would not waste my money.

At least until the factory warranty is about to expire, and add GMPP then if you still have the car.

GMPP is good (I agree Ken Fichtner Chevy has the best prices). You may also want to look into 1 Source or Warranty Direct. Both good companies to deal with.
