So atleast the engine, tranny, and rearend are covered. I think it covers the 4x4 system too for 5 yr / 100 000km...
That's not great if you truly mean km. Isn't it something like 1.8km in a mile?

Dodge used to have the 70k powertrain warranty in the past, and GM did used to be 60k powertrain. Dodge then went to the unlimited powertrain in 2007 and then dropped back to the 100k. GM added the 100k powertrain warranty around 05 if I recall.

Ford was never in the type of trouble that GM and Dodge were. Both those companies, in my opinion, increased warranty periods to gain customers while Ford realized that their customer base was that much more solid.

That's what I thought. Zap is a youngling though, he hasn't been alive long. Dodge and GM have had tons of power train issues which is why they've had to increase theirs to retain buyers.

Fords have had them too, just not as note worthy as dodge or gm. And yes I am young but I do get out and drive quite a few vehicles.
