Well I just flushed it about 10k miles ago, but it now has 6 quarts of fresh fluid! fixed the hose tonight in the Wal mart parking lot while snow was falling(thanks AF for jinxing me with the blizzard comment). It is running good as ever, just really really needs a bath! Trans fluid EVERYWHERE!!!!

walmart parking lots are notorious for rednecks fixin their broken down trucks. go in and get the parts from the walmart and change it out there in the parking lot. i see at least one everytime im there

oh well hell fire it was me today!! And my girl was helping me I asked her to start the truck for me to let it warm up so I could check fluid level, she started it and shut the door.....and I dont know bout anyone else's Ram but my doors lock as soon as you start the truck, you guessed it locked doors with truck running!

So you got it, I am the redneck fixing his truck in wal mart parking lot, also the one breaking into the truck with a coat hanger we borrowed from the dollar store!

it is NOW!!! it was not then! between the cold slippery hands and poor light(my flashlight holder was cold) and snow falling, it took me longer than it should have.

So does anyone know how to deactivate the auto locks on these trucks.....
