my guess is she never even thought about it and when cornered said she thought you would to shift the responsibility/blame



I asked because I noticed the date on the oil change sticker on her windshield.

My youngest daughter drive 60 miles to work each way. She only changes her oil when the guys are standing out with signs for 5 bucks off cause they are slow. She wonders why her cars don't last long. For the record, when they were teens I taught them to drive plus made them both change their own oil/filter and a tire while I supervised before I turned their new cars over to them. Made them change oil/filter so they would get the idea how important it is. The oldest does all her own oil changes. When she was 17 we went out with her 77 Camaro and rebuilt the top end with all new parts: Cam, double roller timing set, Edelbrock, Holley, lots of chrome and put a new exhaust on it.

Your a good dad for that.

I am thankful my dad gave me a respect for mechanical things.

I dont abuse my vehicles that why I am still driving my 2000 jeep and it runs and handles just like the day I picked it up.

I take care of her and she takes care of me, I have driven her on the trails of Acadia National Park to the surf on Daytona Beach during spring break to the floors of the Grand Canyon and every place in between.

When 4x4ing I take it slow, no need to beat the hell out of your truck, save it for when you need it.

And I plan on turning this jeep into a expedition vehicle.

Do you really have to keep reminding us how big of a jerk you are?

We got it many girls ago.



whats that have to do with her assuming it was my job to change the oil in her car?

not a goddamn thing.

except if she blows a motor
or something guess who has to haul her around to work and stuff until she gets a new car.

I shared a car once when I was first married and later on a few times because of whatever issues and its a major pain in the ass.



lol, holler back when she blows a SEAL

you really think she would notice that after all she forgot about a regular oil change.

and there is another issue with her car that causes the CEL light to stay lit, its an expensive fix and I dont have a lift so I cant fix it.

so yeah she would drive it till it died.

you are the man in the relationship, you should man up and do the manly thing and change her oil. Do I really need to explain that to you?

if she had a car that was a normal height maybe but she has a pontiac grand prix gt something, its literally like 6 inches off the ground and you have to jack the whole car to keep from clipping the back bumper.

trust me its cheaper to spend $20-30 to have someone else do it.

so drive her car to the oil change shop and get them to do it? Maybe the next time you take the car to drive it, take a few minutes and stop by and have it changed either before or after you do what you need to do with her car Thats a nice gesture and alot less work for you than doing it yourself. You score brownie points with her for doing something she forgets to do without having to do the work yourself. Instead of just calling her stupid(which Im sure she'd appreciate) you could do something to help her.

Plus alot of women feel awkward still at garages and quick oil change places since its mostly all guys working there and some times they can be dismissive and discourteous to women.

Non, you're a little too sensitive I think. I don't even keep up with oil changes on my wife's car. It's her car so her responsibility. She has to be responsible to keep up with the preventive maintenance. The car should be the responsibility of the main operator.

Sith, what do you think of the 2012 Jeep? I am very stoked about the changes. And tremendous HP/torque for a V6. In 3 or 4 years I want to buy a used 2012 Jeep Wrangler. HT with a 5 speed auto. Maybe the Sahara, maybe the Rubicon.
