    When i first started driving i assumed owner ops were the best drivers...

    after 13 years i have determined that they will sell a truck to anybody.....

    had an owner op come up to me today asking for a funnel to put oil in his truck....he noticed the def cap on my volvo and asked me if his truck used def.....

    i asked what year was his truck and he didnt know....he just bought it this week..

    he then decided his did not use def since it was an automatic....

    i asked why he was putting oil in his truck and he said because his gauge said it was empty.

    he said he looked at the dipstick and the oil had bubbles in it which meant it was good....

    ok...rather than try to educate this guy i went over and showed him how to check his oil...which was fine..then expained the oil gauges purpose which was also fine....

    any odds on this guys success.....

    The story actually gets better but it would cause a lot of contravercy which we know ttr likes to avoid..
