Because they are on XM Radio all the time....another comment on Ox Car "care" commercials

 


The most unintentionally funny part of the radio ads is when we hear a guy say "my mechanic recommended Ox Car Care."  Why is this line so funny?  

1.  Why would a mechanic recommend any car warranty at all?  Mechanics- like any other provider of services- like to deal directly with customers.  Why would any recommend a middle man?  Do mechanics LIKE additional paperwork?  How is this better than getting handed a credit card by the customer to pay for the repair?

2.  Why would a mechanic recommend OX CAR CARE?  Do mechanics like having to go back to customers to say "sorry, that work I did for you will not be covered by this non-insurance insurance?"  Do they LIKE having repaired cars sitting in their lot?  Do they LIKE not getting paid for work done, unable to pay for parts and labor because a scammy warranty "service" and the customer keep insisting that the other is responsible?  Now imagine being the mechanic who recommended Ox Car Care- how do you then turn around and insist that the customer pay for a repair that is not covered by the COMPANY YOU RECOMMENDED?  

Oh wait, maybe you own a big lot and your real business is charging storage fees?  Maybe this conspiracy is deeper than I thought?
