Mentions to wife that her car needs transmission fluid service and
she comes home with a bill for over $500, an engine cover missing 2 bolts and stupid sticker reminding her to come back in 3 months 3000 miles for an oil change.
Wife decided to try a new shop today that is less than a mile away. She apparently ask them to do a tuneup because at one point in the past I mentioned I needed to "tune it up aka new plugs, pcv valve filter" Another reason why I hate automatics and I hate having other people touch my vehicles. |
Oh shit.

Which is why the only service the wife is allowed to do on any vehicle is the service she does in the garage.

last repair job WE did on the car entailed replacing a gear that operates the power locks
Z got the door panels off, i did the getting the module out that held that gear, and replacing the gear. |
My mother got a flat so instead of calling her husband or me, she calls her sister and they decided to get 4 new tires when there was still 50% or more tread on the ones she had.

And 3,000 oil changes are a waste of money unless you have a turbo car that sees primarily stop-n-go traffic. And I wish the phrase "tune up" would go away -- it gives shops an excuse to perform a "package" of services that you didn't need. |

Oh, and there is a 1.5 stall in the back for storing the lawn equip and other misc stuff. This is because A) I enjoy working on my own shit, and luckily she enjoys helping/learning with the less indepth stuff, and B) the "anywhere else she wants" part would be some random dealership or shop where she would get ass raped and it would be my fault, for some unexplained reason. |
