Like the site! Transmission overheated on way home from purchase. Dang mountains. Waiting for transmission removal and replacement. After that I got a S280! Almost time for RV!
Welcome from North Carolina! Hope you enjoy your new toy . . .
Be sure to take a few pictures and post them here. We really like pictures.

Hate to hear that you burned up your transmission?

Transmission Line busted! Told shop to get all lines rebuilt. No gauge for transmission fluid low. Bought around Jacksonville, NC then drove to Hope Mills then to WV.

Sad, but if all you lost was a busted line - you can definitely be a HAPPY guy.
Not smoking your transmission is a definite plus and a lot less costly!

I didn't find out till Transmission Overheated Alert. Shop said they smelled electrical in the oil so full swap, lines replaced then told them to change oil in engine and flush radiator. Try a fresh start ... lol
