My 98 Taurus (with about 90,000 miles on it) just started slippling this past week. I took it to my shop on an unrleated issue, and they took a quick look, and told me that I was burning tranny fluid. He told me that I'm looking at about $3,500 (on the high side) parts and labor. He also indicated there was a hole in the oil pan. He actually suggested just getting a new car.

Is it really that bad?
