Thanks!

Picked it up in May, about 1,700 miles since then, I think (the speedo was out for about 1,100 miles). Glad it doesn't look all beat up!

From the day I picked it up, the Richmond tranny would grind shifting from fourth to fifth. No one knows why. I lived with it (I figured out a way to avoid it about 80% of the time by putting it in neutral for a bit before going to fifth) and now its been pulled to go back to Richmond. Obviously defective out of the box.
