[QUOTE="Anthony Jones, post: 1020514, member: 70648"] My 2008 Gen2 V6 Limited is currently having it's tranny completely upgraded and rebuilt. It was slamming hard into reverse, and was starting to hesitate/slow-shift 2 to 3 and 4 to 5. It only has 58K miles even though it's only 7 years old, but I figured if I was going to have to open it up for one repair, I might as well go ahead and get every upgrade. I was going to just do the fix that replaces the pistons, but I'm getting a deal on the repair and upgrades. Prices in my area ranged from $2100 to $2900 and I'm getting the repair done for around $1800K because an apprentise is performing the work. In years past, I would have just said forget it and traded it in on a new one, but since Ford seems to have forgotten those of us who love mid-sized trucks with flawed transmission designs, I figured it's best just to do the repair and ride for another 100K+ miles.
