Only two and a half years here after transmission #2 went.
 
Re: How long has your truck been down?

I'm going on 3 and a half also. It started with wanting to upgrade the tranny after the local rebuild started to slip just after the warranty ran out, and just snowballed from there. But I think I can see the pinpoint of light at the end of the tunnel.
