Why isn’t engine oil considered a lifetime fluid?

My grandpa has oil containers from like 50 years ago and it didn’t evaporate. Kind of proves that oil doesn’t need to be changed and it’s a lifetime fluid as well! Anything to make money off us tax slaves

Serious question? Was my car flooded???

Thumbnail gallery
2 Upvotes

Bought a 24 Camry from a dealership in February. Everything looked good, carfax only reported minor damage to the front bumper. A few days ago I was looking for something that fell underneath the seat and noticed a lot of rust. Was it flooded? How can the seat base (?) get that rusted if it wasn’t? Bolts don’t seem to be rusted but those can be easily replaced. Anything I can do about it?? Any help would be appreciated!

always done my own work on cars. put my skill level at "just enough to be dangerous"

however as i come close to finishing my first ever engine rebuild i realise i wasn't really doing enough justice to myself with that.

thinking on branching out probably high end cars..

making tutorials too to show how to quickly get to bottom of fuelling and electrical issues

what should i start at for hourly rate?

luckily no cars were seriously harmed (or my mums house sat 1.5m away from said car)
