Draw what conclusions you will ...

I respect your opinion, and respectfully disagree with it based on past experience.
Based on the fact that my wife and I keep our cars way past the time the normal warranty expires, I buy extended warranties. The last vehicle I did not buy a warranty for was our 2001 Honda Odyssey. The post warranty repair costs were almost double what a warranty would have cost.
Further, we just had over $450 in repairs covered on our 2007 MDX, and still have another two years and 40K in warranty coverage.
Everyone has different experiences and comfort levels. For me, owning a $40k+ car with all the power conveniences, stereo and nav system, that I drive everyday, and plan on driving every day for at least the next five years, is a whole different paradigm than owning the 1977 Datsun B-210 I had in college.
