Here are a couple of question for the people with '00 tranny problems (I'm gonna cross post this to the two XOC threads I've found on the subject):

How diligent were you about changing your tranny fluid? Did you change it at the recommended 30k and 60k? I know I changed mine at about 35k, but haven't gotten around to the 60k change (and I'm at 92k now). Did I (we) do this to ourselves?

Also, how many of you regularly downshifted into first gear while your truck was still moving? I did that infrequently the first year or two that I owned the truck, but then I was told it was a bad idea, so I have all but stopped doing it. Was the damage to the tranny done early on by this?

Thoughts?
