====================

Still doesn't answer a couple of the important questions, like:

Do you (secretly) think you can get the tranny fixed cheap, and you're
willing to take the chance?

Do you know if he had it serviced at BooBoo Lube, and they've used
non-Honda fluid (and actually wrecked it after xxx,000 miles)?

Have you asked the Dealer where he takes it whether he's had all recalls
performed?

What's the mileage?

Any chance he towed a trailer in the texas heat?

(I don't actually know what a tranny swap would cost at Honda, but you
could phone two or three dealers for a quote)
