Oil Changes: How the different sexes do things...

DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR TO A JIFFY LUBE-TYPE PLACE!!! YOU WILL REGRET IT. INSTEAD, DO THE OIL CHANGE FOR MEN INSTRUCTIONS, WITHOUT THE BEER AND LOOSING THE OIL PLUG.

Oil Change Instructions for Women

Pull up to Jiffy Lube when the mileage reaches 3000 since the last oil change.
Drink a cup of coffee.
15 minutes later, write a check and leave with a properly maintained vehicle.

Money spent:
$20.00 for oil change
$1.00 for coffee
Total = $21.00
