As important as maintenance, etc. is, there is a certain amount of luck with these (or any) trannys. For all of you that have installed things to keep it cool and/or are changing the fluid and tight intervals, mine crapped at 38K under zero load with VERY few towing miles. It crapped again at 90K under similar usage patterns. I guess my point is just because these trannys are treated well doesn't mean they won't fail.
Sure, maintenance is important but I wouldn't count on that entirely to manage the risk of things going wrong. I'm sure my experience is not typical but I'd personally sell my truck rather than own it without a warranty. I'm at 130K and have been through two trannys and an engine.
