Rusty, that is waaaaay to early to be losing a transmission. But then you already know this. |

Yeah, I could understand it if I was towing stuff - my brother goes through transmissions on his trucks, but he's towing an 8,000 pound trailer on a regular basis. I've never towed anything with it once, and only carried a full load in it one time, when I moved some furniture from NC to FL. I'm not pleased - I'm waiting to hear from my service guy at the Ford dealer; can't WAIT for that conversation..... |

Not good.....the transmission is totally shredded, not even worth rebuilding - it has to be replaced. Anyone want to make a guess on how much that's going to set me back? |

well over $5k? that's how much my kia was gonna cost and i figure your truck probably would cost even MORE to fix cuz it's bigger and stronger... man, i had to go out and run errands; get the mail, pick up prints to bid a job, get groceries... and in the middle of costco, all of a sudden, i felt ROTTEN. i mean, it just ROLLED over me. when i finally got out and got into the car i just sat there. i couldn't even move. my head throbbed and i ached all over. i thought about even going to sleep for awhile but i had stuff that would thaw if i did that. i just took some aspirin and my head is still killing me. i think i'm going to go lay down for awhile, at least till this passes... |

Well, you managed to make me feel a little better Kelly, lol - $3K is my total....which is bad enough, but I'm feeling better that it's not $5K+... |

OMG I can't believe your transmission went out. Is your truck still under warranty? |

Nope - powertrain warranty is for 60,000 miles. They knocked off a few hundred dollars as a 'good customer' discount, but that was it. The new tranny has a 100,000 mile warranty on it at least. Fortunately, today and tomorrow are Kris' days off, so I can just use his car, since he had no plans to go anywhere - but it's still a pain. And I just sent off the check to pay the property taxes on the house, so the reserves are a bit depleted - peanut butter sandwiches for a bit, I guess, lol. |
