I was here at the house this morning when one of those automated
extended warranty calls came in. I always hang up on 'em. Too bad I
didn't think about talking to them and asking about my warranty, that
could've been fun. But heck, my 100K mile warranty hasn't even expired
yet on my '59. It's got less than 60K miles on the clock. Maybe if my
engine goes out, SASCO will give me a new one? <G>

I too ask them to extend the warranty. I let them talk and talk and talk,
then when they think they have me I tell them it is a Studebaker and the
lline goes dead.

Love it

On my answering machine, about once a week, I have a truncated message
telling me that the warrantee on my car is about to expire and
offering to extend it.
(Obviously, it will do no good to "Press 1.")
Today, I got a call from a live person, seemingly a trainee. She had
no idea what a Studebajer was nor even that they wouldn't extend a
warrantee on a 40+ year old car. I kept asking to speak with an
advisor and repeaating that this was a  Studebaker that was older
than  she was, but the "Warrantee Advisor" ws always busy.
She was not happy with the identification number that I gave as it
didn't have seventeen characters and wondered why I couldn't tell her
how many miles on it.
I was able to explain the condition of the car, though.
Soon it became clear that she was a trainee and that there was an
instructor there, too. Eventually, after several pauses for
consultation, she just said that they would be unable to add my car
and said goodbye.
I wonder if this is the last of these calls - but doubt it.
