 THE TRANSMISSION IN MY CAR IS A PIECE 
OF CRAP. MY TRANSMISSION WENT OUT AT 
80,000 MILES AND IT HAS BEEN IN THE 
SHOP FIVE TIMES SINCE HAVING IT FIXED 
(THE FIRST TIME IN DECEMBER 2001).  IT 
IS NOW JANUARY 2003 AND GUESS WHAT MY 
CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP TWO WEEKS 
GOING ON THREE BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION 
WENT OUT FOR THE FIFTH TIME.
