There are only two things I hate in life: Public speaking and the rebate process.

I’m on my second Subaru Crosstrek. The first was a 2015 and now a 2025. I see a 2035 in my future.

Only once a year do I get to sleep an extra hour, and now they’re talking about taking it away from me.

They should restore the price and protect it in locked cases.

And then another CEO comes along…

Find an auto parts store that shares space in a shopping strip/plaza and park in the center of the parking lot away from everyone. They each will think it’s the other persons problem so no one will say anything. Don’t ask me if I do this.

Did I just make it before the lock? I believe I did.

You know you’re a bitoger when you…

Pending supply shortage starting to show up?

I drop them in my drain line trap, as well as the pan. It dissolves immediately when in contact with water. Never a problem.

I’d rather choke on my own vomit than step into a dealership. It’s surprising to me how the old business model has lasted so long. Hope things change soon.

I have a dedicated oil-changing outfit. If you see it you’d think I’ve been working on cars since Henry Ford.

As long as they can’t see my browsing history I’m good.

Pour in a quart of oil when the pan is empty for good measure. Oh laud, did I just say that?

Four 5-quart jugs with oil filters and crush washers for each vehicle I am responsible for.

You’ll be fine with either option. That said, on my prior and current Subaru’s, I’ve always gone with OEM.

If under warranty I’d go with OEM made in Indonesia. They sell it al Walmart (ending in 21A). Outside of warranty use whatever from any of the major auto parts stores.

I wonder how this will affect new car sales. They can’t sell cars without oil in the engine.

I’m on many forums and read about neighbor issues far too often. I myself have them. I’ve come to learn most people suck. It’s just a matter of when the suck comes out. Good luck to you, OP.

I never thought of it this way. I feel so unclean.
