<wob> How can VW offer a 10 year warranty

Well Steve, they do and they don't.  The 10yr/100,000 mile warranty is
on the drivetrain.  The bumper to bumper warranty is 2yr/24,000 miles,
and you know how quickly 24,000 miles get eaten up.  I believe once
you sell the car the 10yr quickly drops to 6 or 5 years for the next
owner, but I might be talking outta my butt on this one.
