Is the Ford Protect warranty worth it?

I’m going to buy a Ford vehicle, but the salesman keeps pushing the extended warranty on me. I’ve heard that extended warranties are a scam, but after reading about them, it doesn’t seem like a terrible deal. Is it worth it to purchase a Ford Protect warranty?

The Ford Protect warranty might be worth it—but the answer lies in your current financial situation and how long you plan on owning the car. If you can’t pay for costly
repairs
out of pocket or if you’re planning on owning the car beyond the 5-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty period, the Ford Protect plan might be a good purchase.
