Hurts to read this.
Car X was flushing out my radiator in a '79 MG.
I drove away & they didn't put any anti-freeze back in it.
Temp gauge saved me on that one.
When I was only 17 & had borrowed a Ford Falcon from a neighbor.
Engine blew b/c of low oil in it & I just happen to be using it at the time.
For 20 yrs. after that, if I was using someone's car, I would check the oil before driving away!
Also learned to check tire pressure after having seasonal tire swap twice/year at Discount Tire.
One time I had only 18#s of air in a tire.
I got to where I would check tire pressure every time before I left the lot: half the time there would be low pressure on half the tires they had just put on.
