Default gutter-downspout quest.

I thought there'd be a easier and less expensive solution.

You're overthinking this. Drill a hole in the gutter. Put in a through the
hull fitting. Attach hose. Run hose to where you want it to drain to. Be
sure to buy one of those HGTV hoses with the vines and roses on it. And be
ready to go up there and clean it out twice a week.

Get up there and fix it right or live with it.

That's just it - I want to fix it right. I thought to fix it right I
could put a new hole in the end of the one gutter and build an
additional downspout. But it seems unless I am willing to spend
thousands on jacking up my house or hiring someone to rip it off and
put on a new one, I'm out of luck. I am the type of person who need
options Thanks again for the help.
