Probably is a transcooler line, not uncommon...look at the driver's side of the radiator, lines going to and from the tranny case from there.

Wow. I'll bet you can't wait until your BF springs a leak. You can "Junk it" with a smile.

Yes, it makes a lot more sense to investigate the problem than to simply replace the vehicle because of a suspected leak (potentially requiring a whopping $2 in hose and clamps to repair). It's certainly better than payment on new vehicle.
