So last night I was driving around, got really bored at home. Anyways, I was driving at about 30-35mph, and I stepped on the gas a little bit, and it only went up to 4,000rpms. I right away figured my tranny is toast, but I tried shifting the car into 1st gear, and it won't let me at all. It seems like the car is stuck in 3rd gear. At stops, it takes forever to get going. But, the thing that puzzles me the most, it I have no reverse. Is my tranny toast? I have to way to drop my pan, because I don't have the time, space and tools, and it's going to be -35 this week. Any ideas?


And if it's my tranny, I won't be replacing, since my car has 178k on the clock, and it's only worth like 2,000 at most.
