Im not sure how the trannys are on the 2.2-2.3's...They are talking about the 3.0 trannys

Mmm.. I'm figuring that if it has that many miles, people just look at the condition of the car instead of its mileage at that point. I'm guessing nething after 150k?

^^ I sold it to a friend... He drove it to 302K and some change... twisted the cam, and had an anger melt down. He axed the body.... would of cost 400 to fix... but oh well. He bought it for $800 cash.
