Tranny been slipping today mainly in low gears, hi gear too but not as bad,, can roll 70 mph on interstate,, all the gears seem to be there. thinking maybe the converter going out..shifts around 2500 rpm and drops to around 1900 rpm... just came off I65 and got a hotel.. ran ok on interstate.. but barely moved in parking lot.. really need to get load delivered friday..not familiar with this area as i am passing through..any idea of problem? cost to repair? time frame? good shop? any help,advice would be appreciated..Not broke,just broke down..

Have you check the fluid level and if so what is the condition of the fluid. Dark in color and smell burnt? And did the check engine light come on? I don't know what the shops in your area charge for any repairs. You can try calling a rental place and get a truck to finish your delivery, this way a shop can look at the problem you are having with your transmission.
