So that's about 100K on the engine and tranny while the chassis has been completely gone through according to them.

I really, really don't like the idea of their offer to handle all shipping and paperwork for $3000.

That just sounds like a headache if you were to do it yourself and I don't have the trust factor to put $3000 more in their hands to do it.

It's really a moot point anyway because I can't afford one.

But it would be nice...
