That sucks. My newest van was my major trouble maker all Summer. Hope they can get it together sooner. Not fun when you have a schedule planned.

Backup is a wonderful thing. I try to keep one extra of everything ready to go.

Once with the Ford vans we dropped two transmissions in two weeks. Jason's went first and then mine quit as I was taking the crate with the new one to the mechanic to install (busy season or we'd have done it). Had the wrecker on speed dial.

Rebuilt ford transmissions were about $700, hate to think UD....

I don't feel so bad.

My 06 van had been sitting all week as I've been using the new van getting everything just right.

Went to move the 06, battery completely dead, not even enough power for the keyless entry. I suspected it was getting weak.
$140.00 for a new battery.

But really, I'm sure $140 to me is like a new tranny to you in wallet damage.

Post it in the garage sale section and part it out. Problem solved.

As good as mine ran....I am pretty sure that by now she is rotting in a field somewhere in New Mexico ...simulators and all the metals have probably been stripped and recycled.......

As for triple wanding, I'm sure your machine can do it, but most RES jobs wont support it.

This is a heartless crowd.
I guess one may have to go to TMF for sympathy.
