[Tangent]

I was actually at a transmission shop with it last Friday after I discovered to my horror that my wife had never done that before I met her. The shop recommended that I wait until their slushbox guru was in and have him drive it before changing the fluid on the premise that at this mileage the old contaminated fluid might be all that's holding it together. On the plus side though the fluid does not smell burned and it's still a nice clean shade of red. At least what I pull up on the dipstick is clean. It's never even needed a top off of fluid...

I'll be taking it back next Friday for the "guru" to evaluate.
