Chevy truck transmissions

Some of you may recall my post a couple of months ago about a failed auto
transmission on my '92 /Chev. 3/4 T pickup. Several of you gave extremely
helpful hints how to override the auto while towing and especially while doing
hills.

With only 10,000 miles on this truck, you can imagine how dumbstruck I was to
have the transmission blow and how I was further shocked at the $2500 repair
bill.

Well here's an update: I found in my files a 2-year-old letter from General
Motors that extends the transmission warranty to five years or 75,000 miles on
91-92 Chevy C/K (and other models) pickup trucks with Hydra-Matic trannies. I
just called the local Chevy dealer and he verified that I will be reimbursed
for the entire repair job.

If this could apply to any of you out there, be sure to check on this extended
warranty!
