Bump-start an irrelevancy. This isn’t 1963.
As to trans repair, aftermarket filtration & cooler plus fluid changes ahead of schedule.
Economy means a budget for anticipated repairs; savings
The idea of “buy cheap & spend nothing” (until failure) needs to be 86’d.
With an automatic, how it’s operated also matters. Get better habits based on longevity; have a plan.
Programming on today’s vehicles overrides stupid drivers. Find the sweet spot. Even if out of synch with traffic.
A rebuild on the automatic I’m driving is north of $25,000. Learn what IT wants. Not what YOU mindlessly input.
