I just cant get a break.....

So I got the 70 running, and Im on my way to work this morning and Im watching the tach because its acting weird and jumping around. While watcing the tach and I notice not only am I almost full throttle, but Im slowing down and my trucks only getting louder. I let off the gas, give it a few quick blips, nothing. So I floor it, to my surprise nothing happens still. So I throw it in neutral and coast about half a mile to a dirt road, I shut her down and through the headlight beams all I can see is smoke. I open the door step in a puddle of tranny fluid. Something tells me that isnt normal so I useing my cell as a flashlight since its 4am I try to crawl my fat ass under my truck. Well, Im fat and my truck sits so low I cant go over speed bumps, and I didnt want to get dirty so I gave up on the idea. Luckily its been leaking since I bought it four years ago and I always carry a few quarts of tranny juice just incase. Pour them in and the puddle only got bigger. So I called into work and told them I was gonna be late because Im a ****ty wrench. And walked home about two miles. And left my truck abandoned out on some dirt road.


First the motor
Then the rust
Then another motor
Body damage from idiots who come home drunk
And yet, another motor
Now the tranny.

All in one year...
