Hate to say it being a guy but it sounds about right, Ive just from a garage doing just the same thing........ but I did not lose the drain plug or have a beer "he he he he he"


:thumbsup

and they say we're the dumb ones!!! it's much less effortless the way we women do it huh?? btw, I know how to change my oil i just choose the less complicated way...why do it urself if u can just pay someone else to it for u??? lol:winkwink:

Well I usually chuck the car into the garage, but being a qualified engineer, sometimes i just love to do it myself for fun.

:thumbsup

One incorrect part about your post:

1) Pull up to Jiffy Lube when the mileage reaches 3000 since the last oil change.

More like 7-10k miles since last oil change, I've yet to meet a woman who understands you need to change the oil let alone perform any other services on a car.

May I suggest MOVING out of Michigan? lol ;)

ummm, ex---cuse me!!! I was raised to take care of my car...I'm a carmaniac!! I even took some automechanics courses...:thumbsup

Was about to post the same thing. :1orglaugh

Good one hon! I love it! So true! But hey, I give props to those MEN who actually DO the oil change! Get all greasy and sweaty baby and come to me for a little break!:winkwink:

i know how to change oil in a car....but i still perfer Jiffy Lube :thumbsup

If you were MetroSexual you could join us! Always work smarter not harder!!!!!!!!!!!

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Sounds like my man! lol

I like to have it changed by someone also :)
no mess, no headaches. all done!

hahahah good one :1orglaugh

your post is incomplete, you forgot a step

4) go shopping and spend $500 on a pair of shoes that cost $5 to make

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh I love it!

hhaha yeah its great. ive seen it a few years ago. its actually true. It takes me like 2 hours to change the oil myself. At a quicky lube place takes like 15 minutes. But its better doing it yourself because they might cross thread your screw and they add crap oil

FACE

If my wife was going to Jiffy lube that would be very true, I dont call her Elmelda Marcos for nothing.
