If you are hands on then buy the maintenance plan. If you like to do your own work OR want to heavily mod your car then don't bother. Same for the warranty plan. If you mod the hell out of it you will lose most of your coverage anyways.... and for $2300? OUCH

Hi There:
I pulled the trigger and joined the Mustang family tonight by purchasing a 2014 premium silver GT with 3.73 rear gear, Brembo brake package and backup sensor. Now, I have few questions: the salesman was trying to sale me a 7 year, 70,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty and maintenance at $2300 a piece. maintenance is at 7500 miles interval and cover everything but Tires and alignment. It even covers the clutch and brake pads.
My question is what is the cost of major maintenance within the 70,000 mile?
Does is it worth the investment? I got a week from him to think about it.
Any advise would be appreciated.

on my second s197 mustang gt. I find these cars to be reliable with minor problems. had to change the alternator on the 06 at about 1,500 km and later a frost plug leaked a bit of coolant. my 13 has required nothing but oil changes and regular service.
pre-paid service is kind of nice if you don't do the work yourself and travel a lot - had it on the 06 and I think it was good at any ford dealer.
