Buddy whos a mechanic called me to chat , got to talking about shop work and he said he can't believe how many women can pull into the shop for a basic oil change or something and when he gets under the hood or pulls it around he can see multiple thing wrong . No fluids , brake pads about gone , suspension wrecked , warning lights all over the dash ect . Said he'll try and get them to get more work done but most just kinda shrig it off or feel he's trying to rip them off . Says (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) see them driving those cars around town all the time . Mean while it seems guys come in and they have blown fuse or something and the whole vehicle is dead lined .

Idk how that works because I've seen the same with with wife and our friends cars ,seriously ,got into drive one of their cars one day and it felt off , go to check , and not a drop of oil on the dip stick asked how long as it been acting like that and I get a shrug and " o about a week" added some oil and the dang thing is still goin today crazy same goes for some other stuff , break pads , coolant , driving on spares and idk... Think a lot of them are just witches or something and have mystical powers over vehicle reliability .....

Because fathers never took the time to teach them anything mechanical. Mine didn't leave home without knowing how to change the oil, tires, and brakes.

And some got taught but it was not there thing. I make it a point to drive ( barrow) my daughters vehicle now and then. Last month it was acting like the transmission was slipping. Its got 120k miles i checked and changed the spark plugs and coil packs. Problem solved. I think its about ready for an oil change come to think of it.

She know how to do it its not her thing. Dad takes care of it when I can. Talk to her about animals and you will be speaking her language (IF) you know what your talking about.

Men and women operate in different operating systems. Men are more logical and mechanical. Women more emotional and feelings. There is overlap and exceptions. It takes both and why it takes both to make a good team.

Still don't explain how they can still have these cars driving around when they should be dead and on the side of the road . Again I call witchcraft

My friend Sarah drove to Dayton from Columbus. A little over an hour drive. She told me that shortly after leaving, her car started making lots of noise and handling funny. She asked if I could look at it. I walked out and from 40 plus feet away could see that the tire was gone. She had, had a flat and had driven long enough that only a tiny bit of rubber was left on both sides of the rim. There were grooves in the asphalt leading up to where she parked. It was amazing she hadn't wrecked.

I was flabbergasted. I couldn't believe she drove on a flat that long.

She didn't have a spare to get home, so I loaned her mine.

She has a doctorate in English, but no sense about motor vehicles at all.

At least we know how to spell, how do you find your way around a ballot?
