Smart move!

The kids that work doing oil changes are not MIT grads!

LOL (can't resist replying) -- I drove away after one oil/filter change and noticed (steam? light? Both? --- can't remember) and pulled over and checked under the hood. They didn't put the cap back on after putting the oil in the engine! I drove back to the place and pointed this out to the owner. They drove to the Toyota dealership, bought me a new cap, returned, changed the oil and filter again, and gave the car back to me with a cupon for a free oil change. I did avail myself of the free oil change (and double checked the results upon completion), but by the time for the next oil/filter change came around I went to another place I'd found (that was cheaper as well).
