First and foremost, I would like to thank everyone on this forum (RV.net). This has been an invaluable source of information for me from deciding to buy, what to buy, purchase, inspection, and enjoying camping. Thank You!
I have 07' Ragen which I purchased in March 08'. I know reading from this net that I no longer have manufacture warranty. So I am looking into purchasing a Good Sam CSP. But after reading what it covers, it sounds like an overlapping warranty on my rig. Even though I do not have the manufacture warranty, I still have the appliance warranty such as Dometic, Atwood, etc. Most of the appliances still have 2-3 years warranty. Can someone educate me on what CSP will offer that I currently do not have? FYI...I took my rig in for very "minor" warranty repairs to Richardson RV in Riverside and they fix everything (i.e. oven, break in water hose, awning, etc). Service Tech told me that they will continue to work on warranty items as long as they can get the part. I am leary that someday, they will tell me that I no longer have a warranty or they cannot fix it because they will not get paid. This is why I am looking to see if CSP or CoachNet will serve me.

Consumer Reports and others state that CSP's are a bad buy. They recommend taking the money that you would spend on the policy, and banking it. Insure yourself.

Does your trailer come with a 1 year warranty? I know ours is a different brand but the 2 year warranty began when we purchased it new in September '07, even though it is an '07 and the '08s were already out. We chose to forgo the extended warranty on this TT.I would think your manufacturer's warranty should cover you until you have had your trailer 1 year.
Someone please correct me if I am wrong, I am just speaking from my own experience.
Happy camping!

Before you make the choice, let me suggest that you read this article which was published in Escapees Magazine some time back, on this subject. It should give you a feel for the best way to decide what you should do.
As a regular reader of Consumer Reports, I have never seen them review the extended service coverages for an RV. Is there a link to this report?

My trailer came with a 2 year warranty. Unfortunately my manufacture (Weekend Warrior) has closed down. So if I have issues with axles, frame, anything structural may the dealer may not be willing to fix it because they will not get reimburse by the manufacture.

Actually, the Axles, and Frame should be covered by the Manufactures of those items. Things inside it , should be covered by the items Manufacturer............Now the trailer itself......... well, different story!!!!!!
