Extending my car's service

My cars 4 year service plan ended last year. I want to renew it but the price for a 3 year plan is 3800$. It's is mercedes cla 250 2016 The service is from a mercedes dealer. Is it expensive? Do you look outside to service your car and not extend it with the dealer?

Replace that endless money pit with a used Toyota or Lexus.

Exactly. I bought a 3yo Odyssey for 21k. I've had it for 4 years and spent less than 1.5k servicing it since, including 4 tires. I used my savings to buy meme stonks and doge

Toyotas and Lexuses are extremely durable vehicles and can last for several hundred thousand miles. You could have saved a considerable amount of money by buying a well maintained 10 year old Lexus.

If you want a Mercedes or BMW, best to get the service plan. Or change to a cheaper car.

Mercedes and BMW are very reliable and durable. Just very expensive to maintain correctly. So many decades old Mercedes cars on the streets - good maintenance goes a long way.
