I stand corrected. This description does sound like the transmission. Sorry for doubting you.

Depending on how much fluid you actually lost, the tranny may still be salvageable but I am beginning think there is a chance it is not...rarely do I say that. It would not hurt to drop the pan (I never say that), clean the filter and do a flush. Total cost to you (depending on how hard it is to get the dipstick tube loose) is about 2 gallons of Walmart ATF and a couple of hours.

Assuming this does get you driving down the road, we need to immediately figure out how you rapidly lost all that fluid. As another poster mentioned the tailshaft seal and bushing is a prime candidate...messy job but not overly difficult. A tranny cooler line worn through at the little clip is another possible culprit. If it is the front seal, you have to pull the tranny anyway so I would replace it with a known good one at that point.
