The extended warranty will approximately cost the same as doing the MDS delete option from a Ram dealer. It's the better option. 800$ or so for the delete kit, and approximately 2500$-3000$ for the repair. It also opens up possibilities with cam stages, better power, torque.. My Ram, bought new, always ran an oil additive, at 140k, never had an issue, but I did the MDS delete option at 2500 miles.
