LOL that shot is f'ing legendary. you are my personal hero. i can't wait for the video.

Jake Wrote:The Town & Country's (third) transmission had enough by the end of Saturday, and the owners drove it 45 minutes to dinner on I-81 stuck in 3rd gear. Once cooling down, it found all the other forward gears again.

good old Chrysler, works 60% of the time, 100% of the time. our 96 grand caravan did the exact same thing on the way to Snowshoe one time. dropped 2nd and overdrive climbing the mountains to get up there, got em back again the next day once she cooled off.

The Town & Country got the same shot. I had more angle, T&C gets more style points.
