Yes, definitely looks larger than the old fashioned automotive ones.I'd like to see the can opener they used!
They're probably going to use those old can openers part number P38 for Navy and Marine Corps. My dad keeps those old P38 can openers around for all kinds of stuff
Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5W30 I found in Junction City Kansas it was in a box that they had to open off of the truck and the box was completely sealed so I know that it hadn't touched the shelves yet. I'm going to use both of these along with the @High Performance Lubricants EC30 shortly as I'm on my last jug of ExxonMobil 5W30 extended performance high mileage. Did not want to mix high mileage oil with the engine cleaner. After that run is done it will be on to the four jugs of the Valvoline restore and protect.
I’ve never seen a P38 but if it’s anything like the Australian equivalent, FRED, I would have thought it might be a bit too small to make each of the cuts that long?
It was a plunge spout.I'd like to see the can opener they used!

Customer states that he was told not to use fix a flat and apparently a quick lube chain told him foam would seal the leak just as well. Well they were mistaken lol. This is one of the most redneck attempts at a fix I’ve ever seen lol

Has there ever been a doubt on what it is
Touareg is the French spelling for the Touareg (Tuareg) people. The French spelling is widely used because the area they inhabit was a French colony for a long time and most of the studies and reports on them were from French explorers.
It's pronounced Too-Ah-Regg. "Ou" in French is a hard oo like moo, too, zoo.
Trevor wants mama to snuggle with him 
Bella moved to the north side of the rodent bait station. Still haven’t noticed any spiderlings.
According to VW during my training and the official VW training video I had to watch it's pronounced Tour-egg after the African tribe. I've heard Clarkson pronounce it like "Twah-reg".Has there ever been a doubt on what it is

Trevor works the "system" with those eyes. Hard to tell a dog "no".
Up to Trev for milking the system.

Hate to say it and I cringe at the idea that it's at all possible (I stopped counting him as a human after the Perodua episode) but - Clarkson was right. On that one.
Whatever PC layer VW slapped on this - if they take a French spelling - it's a French pronunciation.
I'll let the Touaregs driving Touaregs pronounce it the correct way
