A5 trans on an Exploder could wind up totaling this thing outright. $2300 bucks last I checked w/ labor. Truck itself has an FMV of around $4500 in it's condition.

That's 51% by any math.
Ouch man, what a nightmare. I had a 99 ranger that was nothing but problems as well.

Good thing is that I have $2500 saved up in bonds that I have yet to cash out of a CD. If they give me FMV that leaves me with 7K to spend on a hold over car.

Have to wait and hear back for the diagnosis, called up my service guy at the dealership and he'll be able to get us on a track. Last thing I need is that trans to poop out when I have no real cash to spend ('rents don't either).

Changing the oil in the Envoy is a pain in the ass.

Not to mention the 7 quarts of oil the 4.2L needs...
