we have 2 automatics. the 1993 NA lost reverse (fortunately in the driveway) under 100k miles. Our indy put in a (free) autobox from a 1991 with a dead motor (and similar miles?). That one is still going, but the 2-3 shift point lower limit is starting to drift upwards. Our 1989 is also an automatic, was driven gently for it's 22 years and <100k miles, probably did not receive enough tranny fluid changes though (we just acquired it last year), and now also has the lower shift limit for the 2-3 shift up at 45mph. I doubt there is a lot I can do for that one. It's also rusting cosmetically + has been flipped once already so I don't care too much...
Fuel economy on the highway is not great, about 22 mpg for the 1993 + 24 mpg for the 1989, both averaging about 70mph on flat highway... I would rather have a stick, but I still like the cars. We don't take them on long trips anymore.
