Still, the worst Toyota is better than the best Chrysler...

So, why doesn't Toyota offer a LIFETIME powertrain warranty? Sorry, I drive Chrysler products. Best trucks (Dodge)on the market.

Because they don’t have to. Toyota and other Japanese makes have a solid record of producing powertrains that don’t need replaced right after the warranty expires. Offering a 10-year or lifetime warranty to me suggests that you’re having trouble moving your product (like Hyundai in the US a few years ago) and you need a gimmick to help bring people in.
