Riprock - not sure when the in-service date was (a lot of these sat for a while on dealer's lots), or what the mileage is. I believe that you, not being the original owner, have 60,000 miles or 5 yrs powertrain warranty. This is true for a 2000 or 2001 - not sure about the 99's though - check your manual, you have half the original warranty. If you do decide to sell it without fixing it - I would be interested, 502-905-9444.
