Just bought a 32 GB flash drive; and the shopkeeper said that it comes with 'Lifetime warranty'.
Whose lifetime did he refer to - my lifetime, or the product's lifetime? Or its manufacturer's lifetime?
Whose else?

Obviously it is the product's lifetime...But that make sense...The very day the product crashes down (dies) the warranty automatically off...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I've often wondered that myself.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

the packaging's tamper evident seal's lifetime. The warranty ends when you open it. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

It's guaranteed until it quits working...that's it's lifetime.

You wood timber-me-shivers with leave-ing this joke, even to the extent I'd climb out of the trunk of my existence to get to the root of this branching commentary to once again cut into others' busy day only to be-fall their productivity; board-erline tree-son, I tell ya!

Too many puns. You need to learn when to leaf well enough alone.

Well my car needs work. I had just put in a new (rebuilt) transmission then two weeks later a valve goes. I only have 70K miles on it, and I try and drive conservatively.
So I am looking at (in no order)
Chevrolet Malibu LT1
Ford Fusion SE
Honda Accord EX
Toyota Camry
I have had a couple of Camry's that I liked but I no longer live that close to a dealer, I live closest to the Chevrolet place now, but my current car is Chevy which has had a couple of recalls and now the problems.
Just started looking, and since I have a pickup truck I can use, I am looking at February to buy.
I have only test drove the Ford as I want to go in the day time and it is dark after work. So Saturday morning I will be trying to hit a couple more.
Anyone have suggestion of which to get?

If your Chevy dies with 70k you arent compatible to it. 
I like the Toyota quality, but driving (a cheap) Ford. But it also needed some extra fixing which wont be with a Toyota. I would check the Honda first, than Toyota because you drove some. Take a look at the extras/gimmicks.
Press F1 for help or google it.

Thanks. I will not buy Buick or Mazda due to bad experiences. I know people that own each and they have no problem. Must be me.

If Buick was on your blacklist, WTE did you buy a Chevy?  Under the skin the same GM platforms power both of them.

Bought the car from a relative who took payments without interest.

I'd go for the Ford. The build quality appears pretty good and you get a lot of car for the money.

Thank you, my parents always got Fords up until the mid 80's. The pickup I am driving is a Ford and so far the only problem is the oil life counter does not work (correctly).

Recently went through the same process. My 2001 Honda Accord w/ 150K+ was usable, but the short term repair needs would have cost twice the car's value. Time to bit the bullet.
Tested your list (except the Chevy) plus the Sonata and Optima. Ended up getting another Accord (EX-L V6, I love my V6!). Got a great deal by buying a 2015 model off the lot. Hope to get this one to 200K!
BTW: I hope no one takes offense, but car salesmen suck. Glad I don't have to go through that again for another 15+ years. My condolences on your ruined Saturday.

Thanks. My salesman last Saturday was okay. Helpful, not too pushy and answered my questions.

I guess it depends on what you want in a car. If you want to buy home-grown, naturally the Chevy or the Ford are to be chosen between.
Personally, I value comfort and reliability equal and above all other factors. If this is similarly important to you, the choice is perfectly clear - the Toyota every day of the week and twice on the 29th of Feb.
They've the best fuel economy, are perfectly comfortable and have consistently shown themselves to be sturdy, reliable unbreakable cars. It's certainly no coincidence that they're made by the maker of Corolla, Hilux and Landcrusisr models.
We're driving a 97 Camry that replaced an 87 model a few years back after an accident retired it.
The current one just ticked over 380,000 kms last week and hasn't had more than a new filter and change of oil in the five years we've had it. It's life in the previous 13 years was no different after the warranty period expired - much(most) of it's life spent on long distance trips by a careful driver.
Here's a couple of the links I perused to see if others experiences matched mine and those of friends/relatives.
I do note the markedly different reliability of the Hybrid Camrys though!
