..except for the one oil change part

From NASIOC (a Suby site)

..stories about moronic customers

Quote:

Lady came into the Lexus dealer, said her car was making noise when it was running.

They pulled it in and the motor was making a mechanical noise, checked the dipstick and the oil was crusted on there. Car had 100K on it.

Service manager goes and asks the old lady how long it had been since she had changed the oil.

Lady says "Changed the oil? You're supposed to do that?"

100K on a toyota motor with the original oil, damn.

That is funny, but the fact is there are middle aged people out there who do the same thing. You would be surprised at the amount of people that bring their lawnmowers into us and have never changed the oil. We give them a call and tell them they are going to need a new shortblock or engine because they ran it low on oil and it is beyond repair. Their response is "You are supposed to change the oil?" Granted a car is just a tad bit more expensive
