Absolutley.....
and if she is hot.... height & weight proportionate....has all of her limbs attached as well as her own teeth....then ship her to Phoenix!!!

Though it is not ideal, what is done is done... Hopefully you didn't make her cry when you scolded her!!! lol...

 

What kind of oil? If you both (and specificly her) don't drive it like a rental car, then you are probably okay. If you are running synthetic, even better. If this has any potential to recurr, make sure you run really good oil and top-shelf oil filters!

And no, don't divorce her. Just punnish her by making her perform thing she hasn't done since the ceremony! [img]/w3timages/icons/wink.gif[/img]

I would "Bitch-Slap" her The nerve.....
Since we are on the subject, anyone get their oil changes not from the dealership ?

Recently had my first oil change at the 3700 mile mark, did it at Speedy Lube with 5/30 Wt Castrol conventional oil. Dealer would do the first oil change for free, but I've gotta drive 35 miles, then either wait for the service or get a loaner, but either way I have to waste a lot of valuable time, so forget it! I also don't want the dealer washing my car, as I'm told they do automatically - no scratches or swirl marks in my paint, thank you!

I do plan on taking it to the dealer for the 7,500 mile service, then only on major service/maintenance schedule thereafter, with oil changes done by Speedy (or my 24 yr. old son, "Slowy but carefully"). My $0.02.

I change my own oil and filter and anything that's outside the engine and tranny. A couple of thousand miles over or under is really not a big deal. With the modern oil whether synthetic or dino, you are well protected.

My wife let me trade a perfectly good Volvo 850 with no monthly payments for a beautiful G35x that we'll be paying off for the next 5 years. Should I divorce her for exercising poor judgement when she married me?

I like your post. Kind of kicks that whole personal responsibility thing to the curb where it belongs - don't you think?

unbelievable..... serve her with the papers ASAP. with the kind of reckless behavior she has shown, i doubt she could even find an attorney to represent her.

you can easily go several thousand miles over if you aren't racing the car around in 90+ degree weather or towing something heavy. Don't worry about it, don't fall into the "oh crap, I have to make sure my oil is changed at the exact interval" club, unless of course you have a lease and don't want any issues with the dealer.
