Funny Things Gals Will Say......

......regarding the 'mechanics' of a vehicle.

This past weekend I performed a much needed oil change on my wife’s car. Later that day, when she had returned from the grocery store, she asked if I had “overfilled” her engine with oil? I said “No” and asked “Why?” She asked if I was sure because “The little red needle on my oil gauge is pointing farther to the right.”

Same gal, except a long, long time ago, when we were just dating.....

I arrive at her house to find that my soon to be father-in-law had just purchased her a new car (used, but new to her). Excited about her new car, she proceeds to give me the 411 on ALL the nifty options it had, including a "Tower" (hitch) on the back.

Remember that time you axed Denise if she knew the difference between intimate relations and a T-bone steak?

When she answered "No"............you asked her to dinner!!!

I asked my ex wife one day.... "Honey? Do you know why there are three referee's on the ice at a hockey game?" she says "no, why?" I said "that's in case if any of the players fall through the ice they can save them in time!" She believed me for a year or so, when the fella's would come over to watch the game she would be sure to make it known that she knew why there were three referee's on the ice! LOL! Ding bat!

a few years ago the 17 year old girl across the street knocked on my door, and asked me for help with her new to her car.(there is no father figure there, just mom) i went out , and saw the hood up. as i was walking over to the car with her, i asked what was wrong. she told me she wanted to check the fluid levels like mom told her to do once a week, but could not figure out what that 710 cap was. by this time we were at the car, and she was pointing to the turned in the wrong direction to read oil cap. after laughing for a few, i set her straight.
and to this day, i still tease her about the 710 level.

my great aunt had bought a new car many years ago. (olds 88 i think)

I asked her what kind she bought, and she told me it was an Oldsmobile Prindle.

"Prindle?!?! what the hecks a prindle?"
"Well thats what it says in front of the steering wheel, P-R-N-D-L"

she was a cute old lady, but I had trouble containing myself.
RIP Antoinette.

Another story, this time dear 'ol Mom....

Years ago she had unknowingly punctured her radiator while driving over a tree limb, subsequently driving the car to it's ultimate death.

Dad later questioned her, and asked if she had seen a warning (idiot) light come on? She said yes, that the warning light DID come on, but asked "Aren't they supposed to start flashing when it gets REALLY bad???"

I used to know woman who bought brand new Explorer and drove it for 40,000+ miles WITHOUT EVER CHANGING OIL. So one day we were talking, and I asked her where is her car, and she told me that engine died. So we kept talking and talking and then one of my questions was did she ever change oil. Her response was "No. Was I supposed to?"

About 2 years ago I was rotating the tires on my truck and my wife came outside and asked what I was doing. So I told her that I was rotating the tires and she asked in all seriousness "Dont they already rotate themselves as you drive?"

My sister had a friend that did the exact same thing with her new car. Didn't understand why it just quit after a couple of days of making a funny sound.
