no, the truck is now worth more, but so is the tranny... when 'simple' transmissions are worth $40000, what's a newer one going to cost?.. the surrounding electronics can also be a great source of frustration when sensors die, etcAaron":2dsimk9f said:Nesikep":2dsimk9f said:It's rare I see an auto last for 200K... and with the new 6 and 8 speeds I shudder to think of what a replacement costs... usually more than the truck is worth

Auto transmissions have come a long ways in 20 years, NesI. I am assuming that is the age you are talking about when your saying the tranny is worth more than the truck.
