It's a LEASE, stupid! If you LEASE a car and it breaks down, they
give you another one! They don't make you PAY to have it repaired,
or buy a new one!

Who said "crash", you pathetic idiot? Breaks down! Get it?

============

Don't know what company you're leasing from but the last four autos I
leased, although they came with a factory warranty (aside from the lease),
all maintenance and repairs were the responsibility of the lessee (me).
Therefore, all lubes, oil changes, etc. that are required are on my nickel,
not the leasing company nor the factory. This was true with my Honda,
Saturn and Ford. If the brakes went out beyond the standard car warranty,
that, too, would be my expense.

The bottom line from what you state, you seem to have a problem with
remotes -- either too hard on them or bad luck. The fact that both went out
for the same problem would indicate to me that you're too hard on them. Why
should Dish pay for your abuse?

Based on your other posts in this thread, I'm guessing you must be trolling.
Otherwise, you're simply retarded. What does this post have to do with
cable TV? Cable TV is not Dish Network. Go back to your trailerpark and
get off the free Internet access at the library.
