Transmission Flush or just replace fluid?
I just bought a 2003 Ford Edge 4x4 5AT with 42,000 miles. Its in really good shape. It was used for towing, but it didnt seem to be excessive. The only down side to it is the tranmission fluid has a slightly burnt smell to it, and I would like to do something about it soon. I have heard a full flush is $500+ but a fluid change would be way cheaper. Also some say transmission flushes are a bad thing to do. Any reccomendations?

Ford dealership was $190 for a pan drop, filter change, and new fliud.
Subaru dealership where I bought it was $115 for pan drop, filter change, and new fliud...
As I am not familiar with this, can someone tell me what the approx pirce would be for dropping the pan, replacing the filter, and adding new fluid?
