I just bought my car less then a month ago, and it started craping out on me. Well, I was driving in automatic, and it started to slip. I was accelerating, and it jumped to 7,000 RPMs! So, I switched it into semi-manual, and drove to work (and around) for two days. I talked with my father, and he said it was the transmission. Well, we take it to Aamco and they check it out - remove it, blah blah blah. After doing tests they come up with an estimate and a diagnosis: Estimate: 2900$ Diagnosis: The entire transmission is totally ruined. It is beyond repairable. I need to get a whole new fucking transmission now. Fucking christ -- no sound system of rims for me. Fuck. |

Dude. You have an american-made-truck. My car is a german car, thus it costs (on average) 3x for EVERYTHING. Instead of 40 dollars an hour (for an average car/truck), its 155$ an hour. Not only that, but I have to use the 2nd level gas! Im soo fucking screwed! |

I have to use the highest grade of gas because I have a high combustion engine, and you need to do like I did... find a good back ally mechanic, get to know him well... use him for a few years. Then when you get to where I am you don't have to pay for hours... you just pay for parts

| that's true. That's what my friend has done. At the 4x4 parts shop he's bought so much shit for him he gets 40% off. And some free parts. They love him there. |
