Reverse went out many months ago, but since last month, car is basically dead in the driveway. I was looking around here to get a rough idea of what others have spent/done and now I'm feeling kinda sick. I'm waiting on the estimate to replace or rebuild the transmission (I assume somewhere between $1500-3000). It's gonna be hard to decide if its worth it, given value of the car, but, if I can drive it another 83K, maybe?? I shouldn't have to junk it--its an '03 with only 83,000 miles!
