This same warranty is available on the web for $800 with a $0 deductible.
Of course, that is NOW. if you have a brand new car, it isn't worth it.
But the beauty of it is, you can add it at ANY time before the original
warranty expires. So, 2.75 years from now, you do some shopping and buy a
genuine Toyota warranty for about 1/2 of what he quoted.
The Caveat: The warranty starts from Day One, Zero Mileage. If your car
has 35,000 miles on it, the warranty only covers the next 35,000 miles.
