Default Tranny went out in truck

Well, the 2003 Explorer got a new tranny laast week to the tune of $2,700 (did some other repairs too). Frustrating thing is I had an extended warranty and the warranty company went belly up. So, I get to pay for the repairs AND the warranty. I have a headache.

2700 bucks is not bad for "a new tranny and other work" in an '03 explorer IMHO.
Hope it stays working for you.

$2700 for a Tranny?!

I put up $2700, and it better be Julia Roberts from "Pretty Woman."

Sorry about the trouble, MCS. Hope it runs well for you.

Did you speak with Eddie Murphy? I believe he may be the one to talk to for expert advice on this one.

Sorry to hear about the truck man. Is there no legal way to redeem your warranty somewhere, somehow?
