Thanks to both. Yep I am on DF. And Caprice, I once had a Chevy Silverado. 2 reasons I got rid of it. Long story short. Just couldn't afford the payments anymore. 2nd reason, Chevy's sorry powertrain warranty ended at 36,000 miles. I lost 2nd gear in the transmission at 37,000 miles. SO I got the neon I once had. And I had a couple friend with same year vehicle with the same transmission that went out on them as well, One guy had it replaced 3 times in 2 years. They were lucky though, still were in the warrany time.

I thought so. Your welcome. Was it an automatic or manual, TechmanBD?

I just look it up and your right. In fact, every top option V8 offered in 1500 models in all brands domestic and foreign don't have a manual option. Why do they do this?

I thought it would be an automatic. No offense Caprice SS, but I have had lots of problems with GM, including their transmissions. Did you flush your transmission fluid when it was suggested?

Just wanted to be sure for the sake of my records. I do as well. I have heard of quite a few never GM automatics in trucks busting with low mileage on them. Did they have an explanation for why it broke, TechmanBD?
