    Thinking about burning my truck

    or maybe just the tranny. I went up to Monett Mo the other night. I stopped by the murphy gas station to pick up some smokes and noticed tranny fluid pouring out of my big bad tranny. Well 2qts later and 70 miles down the road i got it limped to the dealer. Well it turns out it wasnt the tranny's fault. The trans cooler line was damaged during install. Ok $150 down the road and it isnt leaking from THERE now. So the next morning I take it back and I am like i want my F'n truck fixed. It was only leaking when parked on a incline now. So $35 down the road and dipstick grommet later the MF is still leaking. By this time I am looking for a high powered rifle and the closet water tower to the dealer. Now they are saying they the output shaft was not sleeved and it is causing it to leak out the tail shaft when parked on a incline. If this doesnt do it there is fixing to be a fast, but tranny leaking, truck for sale real quick.
