There were only 5 other people in the place besides me and the employees and the owner. It just took me for ever to get the fasteners I needed because they did not have the exact size I needed and I had to improvise a little. I was looking for chrome to add some bling to my old Deere.

Just changed oil in one of my co-workers Festiva. I don't think they could have put the oil filter on one of those in a worse spot If you go in through the top you're fighting the manifold, from the bottom you're fighting the cat/exhaust.

A few months ago I went over the scale with my truck. Didn't have anything in it but a few straps and myself: it was exaclty 6000lbs.
