Subject:      Re[2]: Outrageous oil change prices

Reminds me of the time I had an All Tune and Lube do an oil change for me.

The technician lowered the rack with the 5 foot tall oil drain pan still under the front end. I was watching through the fish bowl the whole time when the guy had my car's front end 5 feet off the ground and the rear tires on the ground. Looked like herbie the love bug poppin' a wheelie. I thought the thing would be crushed but it held the car until the idiot realized what he was doing.

I couldn't even speak. It was like an out of body experience.

Sodomy, I tell you, even for $17.95.

Reminds me about the time I had KMart change my oil. Came off the rack with the oil light on. Put it back on the rack. I watched them change the oil again. Light still on, but the guy said he could feel the oil circulating thru the oil filter. Must be the sensor, they said. I got a mile down the road before it froze up.
