I hope they put in ATF+4 transmission fluid, otherwise you'll be rebuilding that transmission fairly soon.

Depends on what has been run in it Jason.The truck was built at least 7-8 years before +4 was invented.

Same here, DIII for 226K and, when I took it in to have it serviced, the guy told me that he had never seen a tranny that was so clean and in such good shape.
