Default ATF History

For me because the 42rle history I'm going to buy the little sample bottles at the local drug store,
and have a sample stored, every 3000 mi.
Because it would be smart to have an ATF history of you trans. just incase you need it

If you have an auto tranny and have at least 2,500 miles on it, please vote. If you are having any problems, post a short description of the problem so we can compare.
I havn't had an issue.

Getting ready to roll 24K. No issues (knock on wood). I'm not the original owner; I bought it with 12K on it last July. As far as I know there were no problems with it before.

I think this is a great idea but I'm going to wait until I have closer to 10000 miles before I vote.(I've only got just over 600 now so it's going to be a while)
