Aftermarket Warranty

I get a call from a aftermarket warranty company wanting to sell a policy, any ways in the spirit of April fools day I play along and tell him that you mean you will actually warranty my truck Dodge Voided mine because of my mods.(Probably not true my truck has never broke down) Then he asked what I have done to it so I said Twin turbos, Nos, TST, Smarty, big injectors raised the rev limiter and I sled pull. Then he says no problum Do you want the Powertrain only or full coverage
Will these guys say anything to sell or what. Then I told him I will need it in writing the list of my mods and your agrement to cover the truck, He is to call back today. Price actually isn't that bad but I am sure the warranty isn't worth the paper it is wrote on, what do you think. A cheap sponser for my truck

Iv gotten several cards from a similar company.
One I got shortly after I got my truck.
I called and asked which vehicle was out of warrenty.
They replied "What do you have?'
I told them they were a ripoff and hung up.

Not so much of a warranty as it is an overpriced service agreement. You have to have all of your service recorded or done at a certified shop. Where they get you is on all of your service records and documentation, then they will claim the service was not performed in accordance with their policy. The schmuck that called me said the "warranty" was only 4200 dollars.

They want 2500 for full coverage and 2000 for powertrain. So price isn't bad. But I don't believe they would cover anything anyways. It's not like my truck is going to break down anyways
