Re: Manual transmission fluid
So I just changed out the tranny 'oil' for the Redline MT-90.. with tax it was about $25 for three quarts.. not cheap. on the other hand the car was sitting for nearly 5 years waiting for me to save up enough to afford a new engine, and who knows how long before that the fluid was changed.

Re: Bad Accident - pics added
Stuff on dump-trucks tends to be built very strong and made to take a beating. on the other hand it's harder to fix because it's so beefy.. can't just pull out the dents and slap some bondo on.. so if repairs are needed it might end up costing a bit.
