This may be opening a can of worms, but apparently I've managed (once again) to miss out on the Ford 6.7 problems. Just what they might be? I don't have a Ford, but did have to have the shifter cables replaced on my 2011 2500HD Dura-Max recently.

Of course I shouldn't need it, but at that cost..Why not.
Huntingdog, that was exactly my thoughts...hence my posted question to all. I wonder if anyone has actually used it to cover their claims/damages NOT covered by manufacture's warranty, such as Ricatic's HPFP fiasco. I want double coverage (Manufacture warranty AND secondary party "warranty" by insurance company) if the price is reasonable. Thanks, guys!
P.S. Huntingdog, what exactly do you hunt anyway? Sorry for my off the topic question...
I believe that the reasonable cost is because the manufacturers warranty SHOULD cover most all repairs. But if for SOME reason a repair is needed that the warranty is DENIED and the repair doesn't fall into the comprehensive catagory,,,,then the MBI takes care of it.
So the likelyhood of needing it is small, but with the extremely high costs of repairs on newer vehicles, I feel it is a worthwhile exspense.
My huntindog handle..My wife and I hunt Elk, Deer, Antelope, and Quail in AZ. But the handle mainly came about from our dogs. We hunt and compete in AKC Field Trials with our Brittanys.

Well, I checked out Geico website today to check on MDI coverage. It sounds like it's a very good program...the terms sound real good. I do not doubt that the MDI may give me a sense of additional security, but I wanted to really know if anyone actually used it in real life. I just might sign up for the MDI, but to what effect? Anyone used MDI in real life???
Huntingdog, you got some really good looking Canines there! If I wanted to get a real nice Brittany, who do you recommend that I contact in Virginia area? Sorry...off the topic again...

I am starting to realize that this must be a newer program that may be
a Geico exclusive at this time. If that is so, it may be hard to find someone that has actually used it.
At any rate, it is offered by a major auto insurance company, so I am comfortable with it.
I mean 17.00 every 6 months won't make any difference in my life...
A 10-12 thousand dollar bill....Would be a game changer for sure.
As far as Brittanys in your area. I would contact the Riggles of Wild Mountain Brittanys in Pennsylvania:http://www.wildmtnbrittanys.com/
They are transplants from my side of the country, so I am familier with them. Brian and Helen are good people with good dogs and a good program.

Huntingdog, I was checking out the Geico MDI policy today, and it had some exclusion criteria listed (also seen at their website). It is not clear to me if any HPFP failure will definitely be covered. Have you talk to any specific person at Geico to verify that catastrophic HPFP failure will indeed be covered under MDI? Thanks.
