A successful drop and swap of oil and transmission fluid and filter .
Next time I do tranny- I am putting on a deeper pan with a frippin drain plug!!!
Pia gasket had adhered.. and other minor issues caused a 1-2 hr process to take 4… in the disgusting texas heat/humidity.. (fml)
But done now.. should be good for a while.  !

Forgot about the roof blended 3rd brake light.
IiRCf from my dodge b van forum browsing days, there were huge issues with them leaking to interior, somehow, on the early years after body style switch in ' 93/4.
Roof gutter rust becomes the enemy of free time, and good mood.
Investigate at the peril of both.

Roof/gutter rust is what I will be spending some ‘free time’ on today, before it gets too hot. Doing prep to then install my 3rd panel tomorrow.
Said 3rd panel should help offset for less-than-optimal solar days…

Going parallel for panels (and yes, adding inline fuses..) to get best yield for my circumstance.
((System is 10ga min, and only 3x100 panels 18v 5a.. so at 15a I shouldn’t have to upgrade wiring..))
I blame You guys..
