These are insurance policies just like health, flood, homeowners, etc. They may be appropriate for some and not for others...

I.e ....Presumably no need to buy flood insurance if you don't live in a flood zone ... same can be said for wheel and tire protection being dependent on the condition of the roads where you live.

I don't see your point.
It's nice that you do, but most don't, hence my post

Amen!....and/or use your brain before buying everything they offer you.

You find it expensive, at the same time you say it's worth it but on the other hand you don't hope to use it so you don't have any of the benefits you payed for. I find it slightly confusing tbh .

No sir/ma'am, I said I hope I do not have to use the protection soon. Use of similar protection in the past saved me on multiple occasions, so getting the protection on my car was worth it to me. It may not be worth it to others, and there's nothing wrong with that.
