Except when you are driving at night on the freeway between San Diego and Las Vegas, and your '100,000' mile belt breaks at 30,000 miles, totally destroying the motor. Then what will you do? It happened to me... Granted, it will be fixed under warranty, but it is still a pain in the ars to go through. Trust me, you want your car to have a T-chain.
