Update:
Okay, so up until this weekend I was totally on track with this trip. Unfortunately, something happened to the transmission of my car and I am left with a sinking feeling.
If getting the fluid flushed and changed does the trick, I might still be all right. If it doesn't, then I am going to have to use my money for the trip (and some money dug out of a leprechaun's bucket from somewhere, that I don't have) to get a new car. They quoted me a price for a new tranny that's a full 1k more than the car is worth at this point.
I had a feeling when I first planned it out that this piece of shit Ford of mine would be the thing that fucked me over. Lo and behold...
I probably won't be able to tell for a few days, and I might have some other options, but I felt I needed to say so before anything else got set.
