OK, I have the fear in me now. I really don't want to work on the car unless it's for fun. I'm so over doing repairs on vehicles at this point as I've
swapped enough engines, transmissions and countless parts for necessity. I think with the simple mods I'm planning, I should be pretty safe.
All it would take is something simple like that ABS actuator mentioned up there and the extra warranty paid for itself. Even with getting that particular part used
and my time involved, it comes out as a wash. All it would take is a few more simple parts(and labor) to go bad after that bumper to bumper is up and I
would have made the wrong choice in cancelling it. I thank everybody for the input to figure this out.
