RE: It's A Sight For Sore Eyes!

Wish I had you to fix my van’s transmission when it died. The lowest price I found to have a rebuilt one installed was freaking $6k! So therefore I let it go, it was sad. I miss my van and anything that I run across that I can afford, all has transmission issues… Can we even call it a tranny anymore? 😂

Sort:  

I'm not too sure if we can call it a tranny anymore but heck dude 6k? That's insane, that is literally the worth of my 2013 Ford Focus Powershift. It's around R100 000 (in ZAR)

Keen to know what that car would even cost that side.

What van was this?

It's a funny thing actually, everyone takes so much care to service the engines and no one stops to think about the transmissions 😅 I mean that DSG box doesn't even have a oil fill plug, you push it in from the drain plug😅

Get yourself a Toyota Hilux, fix it up properly and it'll last you a fucking life time! Those KZ-TE's are probably the strongrest and most durable pickups I have ever seen in my life.

It was for a Ford E150 Econoline. It was going to cost like 5K just for the transmission then about 1K to install it. I got the same figure from a few different people. The problem was that van could have had a few different models, and mine was the hardest to find, of course.
