Ouch! Glad yoyu weren't in rush hour traffic in the cities when that happened. That's no fun! Good luck with the vehicle. How much is a new engine going to run you? Hopefully, it'll be all fixed up and ready to roll soon.

I went through that almost exactly a year ago with my jeep. It cost over $3k for a new engine for that beast. My last vehicle left me stranded on the side of 494 during the morning rush on the way to Woodbury for work. It never recieved forgiveness.
