If you want to go a cheaper route with some character, strap a blower onto that jeep and you'l have something special but you lose the warranty etc.. If you want piece of mind and bmw ownership go for the M + warranty and call it a day! You can easily get away with having a tune and stay in warranty too, should bump you up to 620hp with a ecu flash. If you want more sound add an exhaust and downpipes, they sound pretty tame stock but absolute beasts with catless downpipes+exhaust
If the trucks have proven to be reliable why blow 7 Grand on a extended warranty? 7K seems very high. You think the dealer wants will honor the warranty if he throws in a tune and downpipes on a potentially catastrophic breakdown?

pass, pass, pass on the warranty. There's a reason they offer these, they're cashing in big time.
