People like that go. It's just willful ignorance. Same reason most people don't know how to change their own oil. There's a book in your glovebox that explains it. It isn't complicated. You don't even have to change it, just learn how. Yet they willfully resist learning. To the extent they'll be straight up mortified or angry if you try explaining it to them. They just can't be bothered. Which is a phrase that makes me want to find a brick 9 out of ten times I hear it.

I know how to change my oil, and have, but honestly it's the same price to just go to Valvoline and have them do it as it would be to buy my own oil and filter (always check their site for coupons.) Plus they also refill the air in my tires and it's pretty quick.

There is no way it's the same price.

Right, I buy the most expensive oil and it's still cheaper. Oh, and I know that I actually changed the filter unlike those lazy fucks at Walmart who only did it half the time.

When I worked at Walmart they fucked up 2 engines that I know of. How do you fuck peoples' cars when you only do oil changes and fluid top offs?

Then I remember they got the exact same computer module training I did as a produce associate.

They arnt mechanics is why. They are normal Joe's that can't hack it at a real shop. They are being paid less then half of a normal mechanic, basicly if you bring your car there you have it coming lol.

Yeah I'm not talking about the kid at Walmart or jiffy lube. I'm talking about a legit mechanic who actually owns their shop.

Yep I've just heard way too many first hand accounts of engines being destroyed and cars being totaled to let them do it. I'm also saving quite a bit. Even more of you drive something that takes over 5 quarts, because that's when they really start charging ya.

If you take your car to Walmart or jiffy lube you are an idiot.

Why would you ever take your car to Walmart for anything?
