Saab 9-5 Rear brakes AND rotors?

So, I bought my first Saab - a 2001 9-5 with about 110,000 on it (love it) - but I took it to a dealer and they told me it needed all this work. The thing that REALLY struck me is that they told me I needed new rear brakes (not a problem) AND ROTORS - telling me that with a Saab, you "always" replace the rotors when you do the rear brakes. Now, I've NEVER had anyone tell me this. The pads I can see, but they weren't down to the rotors. Did I get "taken" by this mechanic?
