Just came home with more debt

I have known what the process is to change a tire for years but as luck would have it the very few times I have had to have one changed there have been guys around to help. Years ago my mechanic at the time told me that a woman's problem is the force needed to get a tire off that has been put on with the power equipment used in a shop.

I like the clever female motorist hop on the lug nut wrench to break the lug nut loose.
 
I had seen people ad oil to their car parked on a hill. I thought it was best to do it on a flat ground to get a better reading on the oil stick. I was told this was better , is that correct?

Lol. Yes, you right. Always on the flat ground when to check the fluids.
 
Did you test to put a full tire (borrow from the same vehicle) to fit the spare tire well? Make sure it can fit before you harvest an used full tire from junk yard to put in the well.
Yes I stuck the flat in there, plenty of room.
 
And I hate these freaking scissor jacks, takes forever to lift the car with a 1/4 turn at a time, I want to mount a small speed jack in the trunk.... its crazy and they arent very stable at all.
 
I got several friends with them on their personal vehicles (Jags, BMW, and a few other cheapies) I prefer them for my wife... which will be reason in next post

I am thinking of my daughter and grandchild , I would not want them get a flat on a dark road while traveling.
 
my main concern about her safety is that she has no sense of directions.
She now knows how to get to work and back home as i had to take her ( after she transfered to another department) but if there is a traffic jam or construction, she has no idea where she is at just going around the block.
She will call me and tell me her location and i will give her turn by turn to get home. I will let her know landmarks to look for and that her turn will be before or after that until i can get her back to a familiar location to take over on her own. But roadside service is a joke here, they take hours to get there and spend all but 10 minutes to do something and leave... Either it be fuel or a flat, at night, in the cold or pouring rain is no fun at all. I want her to be able to get to point b or a point of safety especially if she is alone or has our son with her.

'like!"
