I used to buy them on American cars... .I once booked 7K against a
warranty on my Ford Taurus... Needed a new engine and 2 trans and an AC
inside of 3 years. Since then I paid about 6K on warranties and NEVER
used them.... I guess they are even.... now I only buy one if I am silly
enough to buy the FIRST year of a new engine.


I don't buy new cars, that's just throwing money away, like about 15%
of the vehicle's value as soon as you drive it off the lot. I let
someone else take that hit.
