Had the same argument with the "closer" at the last car dealership I bought a car from. Him: What if something happens after the 3 year warranty?
Me: Do you think something would go wrong that soon?
Him: No, but it could.
Me: Well your sales guy just told me this is one of the best cars Ford has ever made and should easily last ten years.
Him:Blah, blah, blah.
The car is 15 years old now. Only minor issues that I repaired and they were well known issues that Ford was aware of and somehow got by without a recall.
Gotta love the sales guys.
