I was putting some wipers on my truck at the auto parts store and the guy parked next to me said you should buy some oil to. I said what he said your truck is knocking you are low on oil. Then he got into his neon. Get this stuff all the time.

This one just happened today going into the Home Depot. I had to park kinda far out in the parking lot.

-truck idling on the turbo cooldown timer-
dumbass: HEY HEY HEY!!!!!! You're truck is still on
me: I know
dumbass: Why aren't you gonna turn it off, someone could steal it
me: Because it hasn't cooled down yet and the keys are right here -jingle jingle-
dumbass: So, I've never had to let my car cool down
me: Well, get a diesel and you will understand
dumbass: You should really take it to the shop, no engine is supposed to run after you take the key out
me: Mine does
dumbass: It's people like you wasting fuel that run the prices up for the rest of us
me: You really know nothing about diesel engines do you
dumbass: That's a diesel?
me: I'm walking away......-truck shuts off-...now (I got REAL lucky timing it perfectly)
dumbass: How'd you do that?
me: Walking away

Gas attendant; "oh, that's a diesel?"
Me; Yes, why?
Gas attendant; "um, we have a problem. I filled it with regular"

This after the truck did the usual "death rattle" when I shut it off with the guy standing right beside me........ At the diesel pump!
