Would I ever consider an 8-year loan with a lifetime warranty? .... What are the terms?

Is it that, or walk to work?

If it's a sucker that asks those questions before deciding on what car, and payment I fit into.... I'm your huckleberry!

2 years? and yet looking back in history Dodge has been here before. A goverment bail out and here we are 2 decades later.

Dodge was here when I was born. I bet it was here when you were born as well Johnny. The auto makers have seen worse times and yet they still stand. All american based airlines would be gone if the goverment didnt write a few checks. Too many jobs lost, and it's tuff to be a superpower if we all drive a Toyota.

Dont count Dodge out just yet bro.

Maybe Dodge ,GM and Ford will be around for another 100 years.
You will not see the goverment giving money to any of these companys that fail anymore.
I think Fannie and Freddie will be the last.
We have to many airlines that are selling tickets where they are not making money on but losing money..
You will see many more airlines going out of business soon.
I can only see how bad a company is when their stocks were $60 a year ago and now they are at $5 a share
this is the time to buy stock and sell it before the 2009 challengers come out so you will have a very big down payment

ORIGINAL: Johnnytuinals

who in their right mind takes a 8 year loan???(unless they are broke}
A life time warranty is only good if the company is around???
Yes a 96 month loan will bring the price down as a lease,,,but who takes a lease
always wants a new car every 2 - 3 years.
I think the people from dodge screwed up and many if not all will go to Ford and GM
Any idiot who takes a 8 year loan will never be a position to trade for a new car without owing more on the old one than it is worth. If Chrysler doesn't want it's cars on it's books that shows they have no confidence in the future. Remember they are owned by a private equity group who'd only concern is it's investors. If they see no good future they will do whatever they need to do to cut down on loses whith no concern on who gets hurt. This is the start of the end for Chrysler

Just because someone takes an 8 year loan doesn't mean their an idoit they might want the car for the length of the loan or they might not be able to afford a quality automobile If the car has a lifetime warranty I would say its not that bad of a decision the only one they should really worry about is the intrest rate

Personally... I would definately consider an 8 year loan on the Challenger if there was 0% or very low interest. I wouldnt worry about being upside-down in it because I have no plans on ever selling the beast. I would hardly consider such a decision as idiotic... just thrifty use of someone elses cash. In fact... given such terms and circumstances... one would be and idiot for not taking advantage of such an offer.

I can guarantee there are enough idiots out there that would take an 8 year loan on a car. They offer 50 year mortgages on houses now and people have flocked to them. The average american now has over 9 thousand dollars in debt, and I bet they wouldnt mind being under that debt for even longer. I am glad that I took a 7 year loan on a 20 thousand dollar car, 0% intrest, and I dont plan on getting rid of it. I guess I must be one of those idiots you were talking about.
