I fail to see how this extended warranty is "insanity." This is a special case and a bit of a PR nightmare for MB. Seems like a nice goodwill gesture.

However I do agree with what someone said somewhere that there won't be many of these systems for MB to deal with at the 25 year mark. I can assure them, though, that, barring my totaling my car, they will have to deal with MINE.
