Prius? :Grimmace: Nope. That's a Mini Cooper. Check out the headlights and the holes for the headlights at the front of the hood. I recognize it because my wife drives a Mini.

I blame fathers that don't show their daughters basic maintenance and while this is meant as a joke video
there are a lot of women that will drive a car till it quits with the scenario I saw that oil light but I thought it was just low so I drove it to the shop it did not make it.

Hey, when you want it done right, you have to do it yourself.

I just wonder if she'll be in the same boat as me with leaking, because that's what my car is doing.

Believe it or not... my 2013 Jeep Wrangler owners manual actually states:

"Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight Mineral Oil in the engine or damage may result."

May result? Really? I'm shocked.

Ever read some of the warning labels on ladders?? It's called "lawyer-talk"!;)

They just as well could have stated..."Never use Kool-Aid in the engine or damage may result.";);)

I've just seen this and called my wife in from the kitchen to see it.
She pointed out the complete look of concentration on the woman's face as if she (the woman in the vid) was saying to herself ..... "This must be important so I'd better get it right."
