Dog years warranty

Express warranties in dog years

Since 1 human year is about 7 dog years warranties would appear more impressive.

"The Ford Focus now comes with a 35 year*/100,000 mile warranty."

(Bottom of Ad) * dog years

Or the checkout person at Best Buy could state: "Your Walkman is warranted for 1 year. For $10.00 I can extend that to 7 dog years".

       [kamenmann]: So what you're suggesting is a way for salespersons and advertising to con people (even more than at present)? (-)

       The advertising business should get behind this one. I'm surprised they haven't started it yet.

       Hell, why not Pluto years, then...   

       I'm cool with the plan as long as I can pay in Monopoly money.
