friend has a 95 zetec GL (just like mine) with an ATX and he has replaced the tranny 6 times since he got it new. he drives like a dead guy...10 under the speed limit wherever he goes (he is 82 years old)... first time the tranny went, he had 12k. he now has 229k and the tranny is due for a 7th replacement. its a good thing the current one is still under warranty. he got a lemon. from what i have heard most tours with ATX's arent like that. and he still owes to much on it to trade it in...

he paid 23K new and has a [censored] interest rate...apart from that, i dont know why its not paid off.
