Im buying a Viper and driving the hell out of it every single day. I will put 200,000 miles and comute in peace of mind everyday.

@Alberto -- unfortunately, SRT vehicles (including the Viper) are excluded.

Question:
What good is a Lifetime warranty that doesn't transfer to the second owner of the P.O.S?
We all know that nobody, in America, drives the same car for more than 5 years. Besides, as soon as hybrid, electric and any other enviromentally friendly technologies catch on, nobody's gonna want a gas guzzling Chrysler anyway.
Sounds like a desperate marketing gimmic to keep oil companies in style for another 20 years, to yours truly. Plus, how long do you think it'll be before every other car manufacturer jumps on the "too good to be true" warranty bandwagon? Remember "Employee Discounts for everyone," anyone?
Last question. If these engineers are so good that their designs don't fail, why are they so slow to adopt efficient technology?
I doubt that this Lifetime Warranty has anything to do with the actual quality of the vehicle. My '03 PT Cruiser has had thousands of dollars of issues, and the dealer hasn't tied any of them to the powertrain. So if your power trains are so good, why don't you focus on the rest of the vehicle already?
