I have always said that if the vehicle hasn't beena a money pit and mechanically and physically is sound otherwise then a transmission should be replaced if needed. That being said, have you gotten any other opinions on whether the trans. really needs replacement or can it be rebuilt? Some shops will just say - "Yup, new transmission" and don't explore the options with the customer, rebuilt, used , etc. Make sure you are explained why they ant to put a new transmission in. Sometimes it is valid, others not so much.
