    budmottGreat joke, but you left out one of the instructions for women. After you leave Jiffy Lube, take the car to husband and/or mechanic to make sure they put the oil plug and oil filter on tight enough that all the oil does not leak out. My friend who is a mechanic in Alaska says he has this problem all the time.My son's girlfriend had them do the tranny fluid in her car and they "forgot" to put the plug back in. She trusted that they did their job and drove it for a few days until she noticed something was not right. She could still drive it but it messed up the tranny. It's OK though, a couple of months later someone hit her and the car was totaled. P.S. She was not hurt.

    If I knew then, what I know now.
