remember when we had to start our cars up 5 or 10 minutes before we were going to drive off? I can appreciate the new tech for the ultra easy starts that we get from all the fuel injection and computer sensor monitoring

  1. I've had certain customers who would burn oil like crazy. It had nothing to do with maintenance, or brand of car, every car they owned would drink oil. I finally realized that they would never let the car warm up even five seconds after a start, whether cold or hot. As soon as they released the key the gear shift was in Drive and the loud pedal was on the floor. Amazing how much oil will get sucked past the rings in that minute before the metal warms and expands.

  2. Looks like it was a cold morning, probably a bunch of cars that usually lived in garages.
