I can grease monkey it, but I have better things to do with my time like make money and spend time with friends and family. Just one man's opinion.

This is an excerpt from one of my previous posts regarding the simple CBA I applied before committing to the Extended Maintenance through 100K miles or 6 years (whichever comes first). I am at 46K through year 4 so I will probably hit the 6 year mark before the 100K. I like this Maintenance Plan because I pay zero anytime I service my car. Brakes should be replaced around 50K so if you can get one in under the original factory maintenance plan, you can theoretically increase the cost benefit. Plug changes are about $300 as well and you will need those. In summary, (1) brake job front & rear, and plug changes and the Extended Maintenance Plan pays for itself.
