AT least a bad transmission is a 'finite' issue ..
and not something like wateboxer elusive weird poor running, for example.

Perhaps you are supposed to live in Bishop.
Interesting beautiful area.
ask around about Willy's hot spring , it may be called, well north of
town, not passed Mammouth airport though.
3rd cattle guard I think.

or Hot Creek ..though I don't know for sure you can still get in that
randomly hot small river.

it's a special opportunity I think.
lookat this way..
there are millions of places it would be far worse to be broken down in.

what trans do you have , a DK ?
that's most likely ..one from an air-cooled vanagon.
I need one myself , lol !
really though ..I would not mind being in Bishop Ca with my
woman-partner atall.
on a scale of 1 to 10 about good places to be broken down in...
Bishop Ca ratesa solid 9.

Had been dealing w finicky engine throughout the day and finally seemed to be under control as we headed up the brutal grade out of bishop. Something have way while going 30 in 2nd. Tranny is definitely a rattling bucket of bolts. Headed to sierra vs repair. Anyone have any tips? Tranny replacement?
