IS this warranty one of the Genuine Toyota extended warranties(gold or platinum care)?
Never seen the 6 year 100k mile option when I bought my extended warranty. I had problems at the dealer when I tried to get my insurance straightened out(in PA you have to show proof that your name is on the insurance, it doesnt matter if you are under someone elses policy or not, and I was under my dads insurance at the time) and ended up spending an extra two hrs at the dealer. They knew I was upset and the dealer offered me the toyota genuine certified platinum warranty coverage (I dont know if thats the name for it or not, but its the high end extended warranty) for their cost (he claims) which was 800 bucks. This warranty has no deductible and goes for 6 yrs 75000 miles, and is bumper to bumper. He said he could sell this warranty for almost double what I paid for it.

I'm not sure about the price for 6yr/75K miles.
Apparently, there's different ranges with regards to the years and mileage options for the warranty and level (Toyota Gold or Platnium). It all depends on your driving habits.
When my husband and I lived in the east bay we would put in about 22K a year on mileage but now since we moved closer to the city we would probably get half of that, especially if we don't really take vacations, because we prefer driving instead of flying.
So we took the 6Yr/100K (in case we do take vacations), the finance guy were showing us 7yr/100K for like $1400, which is Toyota Platnium. When we looked at warranty, there was another choice, but then since the finance guy said it was a hybrid the best bet would be a Toyota Platnium. Anyway, the warranty is also transferable so I thought that was an added perk in any case we decide to sell the car later down the road.
