:mj:
I was at my local autozone picking up 7 quarts of oil (Mobile 1 5w-30 if anyone really cares), as our cars take 6.5 quarts. Anyway I was with my girlfriend, and she was looking at whatever it is girls look at in autopart stores and she came over and said something along the lines of "holy shit I can't believe the Cobra takes all that oil".
The guy checking me out promptly goes on a soap-box rant about how there's no way I should be using all that oil in "only a 4.6L Mustang", and I just smiled and told him not to worry about it, and he told me I was going to blow my engine up. I just looked at the kid (maybe 19? 20? I'm only 22 though so I shouldn't really say kid but the way he was acting..) and gladly informed him my car is a 32V DOHC motor, and that 6.5 quarts of oil is perfect for it. He then proceeded to tell me that no Mustang has 4 valves, that's impossible for a v8. :shrug: :shrug: I couldn't even bring myself to respond at this point, in fact I found it very amusing.
I really hate know it alls, and unfortunetly, in the car world they seem to be everywhere. I can't even buy ****in' oil without having to listen to these clowns. Sorry for the rant, that shit just annoys me.
