			I'm sorry but how do dealers through out prices like that while sober?
 Why wouldn't they just say "Your car is totaled".
 
 Let's say 8 hours to remove and replace a transmission @ 100 hr equals $800.
 $2k for a rebuilt 5 speed (high, I know) with a limited warranty.  Let's add $200 for 'stuff'.  You're at $3k.
 
 IDK what the PS pump work costs but I'll bet it isn't as much as a tranny.
