Should I get the extended warranty?

[Alien Mantis]

I have an `08 Yaris 3dr Hatch and I went with the Platinum extended warranty.
I have been a mechanic for over 20 years, and I do ALL my own work.
The problem is, the PARTS cost money.

I live in a very hot climate in the summer months, and air-conditioning systems take a big hit out here.
If my A/C were to go out, the parts alone would be more than the price of the warranty. So for some peace of mind, I went for it.
Normally, I would not get the extended warranty.

I will have 3 years of warranty left, after the car is paid off.
I can live with that!

I don't forsee any problems, the Yaris is a great little car.
It's just one less thing to worry about in life, if something ever does happen.
