new member, '01 taco

I've had my '01 access cab 3.4L AUTO 4WD Tacoma since I turned 16 in 2001. I've put every single mile but the first 5 on it myself, and she's at 210,000. She's lunar mist metallic with color coded flares and bumpers. I have nothing added because she's perfect the way she came and tough as a pine knot. I've been involved in several head on collisions with trees, a concrete post, dirt road embankments and ditches, and rear ended a buick at 40 mph and never had any body work done. I sunk it the first week I had it in a mudhole called 'The Boss' behind my neighborhood, mud came inside the cab and soaked the carpets, but I locked the rear end and backed her right out. I'm now having transmission problems and need some info so I can keep on enjoying my first love. Check my post in 1st gen.
