That's a tough spot to be in, I personally would question spending 1/2 the book value on a repair vs. selling it as-is. Presuming you own it out right, sell it for 10k and have a down payment for a replacement truck, or spend 10k on the one you already have... I still think there is a cheaper transmission out there via recyclers, aftermarket or rebuild. (Cheaper than 5k for the unit) -
Sadly, there's a drought of good 92-95 4.3 cars at junkyards in the area otherwise I would have gone fishing for parts. Not that they don't come up, there's just nothing good in the yards right now. I tore into the intake yesterday evening, easier than I thought, and I might have this problem licked for cheap. Two of the intake studs came up with the bolt on removal, no big deal but that's why it looks funny with studs only on one side. There's pooled gas on both sides of the plenum. Highlights boxed in green. Picture-right side has an obviously split pressure line from rubbing on the #5 injector nylon line. #5's line is worn in that spot but not all the way through. Passenger side intake (picture left), not sure, but I think the pressure regulator is hosed. Rebuilt spiders don't come with the pressure and return hoses so I'll need to replace those no matter what. A pressure regulator is $30 so I'll try that and if I end up having to swap the whole spider, it was $30. I'll be grinning ear to ear if that's all I need. Parts arrive Tuesday. Sure enough the shop was here before. That's a new gasket. Vacuum lines and wiring are a tangled mess, I sorted that out last night as well. Spent about an hour just picking up general slack and shoddy reassembly around the engine bay. Cheek-pokered the battery tray, got it all cleaned up. Sometimes things just need a little elbow grease and a few minutes of time to be right again. -
Recovery is pretty harsh at this point. I could probably seek more medication to ease the discomfort, but I don't want to be dealing with withdrawal when I am physically able to drive again. How are you doing? -
The entry price point and utility/versatility should be a pretty good hit. The initial release is a fad, sure, look at the people lined up out the door to buy one before they're even available. But that's any novel release. The proof of adoption is what happens to the car in the used market and as we're seeing with EV's they're affordable staples of both primary and commuter transportation in populated areas.

How long does it have to be in the shop before you can lemon law it? It’s absolutely unacceptable that it’s been in the shop for 2 months and they haven’t even provided a loaner car. The warranty is not working if they can’t fix the vehicle in a timely manner.
