So pressing on the accel pedal reved the engine, etc, but it wouldn't budge? It would sound to me like some sort of a drivetrain/axle/tranny problem, but I know nohting about such things. All I can say is, what kind of driving was your dad doing to blow your tranny, if that is indeed what happened? A little drag spirit in him, is there?

Does it rev normally in D4 too? Prolly doesn't make a diff, just wondering. For all you knowledgeable people who may come in here: I suppose you've tried it in D3 also? Is it ever possible that the shifter would be messed up and it'd be thinking it was in a different gear?

but atleast 1 gear should work if its shot
