Question Warranty Question?

I have a used 06 F150, my factory Bumper to Bumper is going to end on oct 10 2009. I have the option of paying $50 to transfer the Ford ESP which is 60mo/60k Powertrain and Roadside Assistance (no bumper to bumper). If i do this, this will expire on 10/10/2011.

When i bought the vehicle, i bought a premium extended service plan through Fidelity at the dealer when signing. It's a 60k or 5 yr Warranty that started the day i bought it (couple months ago) so it will keep me covered up to around 70k, with a $100 deductible and i paid almost $2000 for it.

My question is, should i just transfer the Previous owners Ford ESP to my name for $50, and cancel the Fidelity one that i paid $2000 for and get that money back, even though the Ford ESP is only powertrain and roadside assistance? Or should i just hold on to the full coverage of the Fidelity Warranty i bought when signing?

Just curious what you guys think, thanks.

I would get rid of the Fidelity and keep the Ford. That's just me though. I haven't bought extended warranties on the past few vehicles.
