[coupe sighting] RH - who went to jiffy lube?

Saw an IP coupe pulling into the Jiffy Lube on Colima and Jellick in Rowland Hts right as I was leaving (right next door to Tint Zone).... I think the owner had glasses and was wearing black or dark blue.


.... who got caught not changing their own oil? j/k

For some people, time is money.

True... just wanted to point out though, if you factor in the round trip time it takes to drive to Jiffy Lube and have the guy fill out the paperwork (and sell you "extra" services) it comes out virtually the same.

nothing like going to the Nissan dealership and while your G is getting an oil change you get to test drive the Z's lol

heck, if you're gonna wait, at least wait at a dealership so you can check out all their line-up... makes time fly by faster!!!

That's what one would hope... but I think I saw smoked or cleared corners (the fender lights) so I figured maybe they'd hang out around here.

Hmmn... maybe we're all being a little harsh. I guess if that was my car in there I wouldn't admit it was me either.

any of you remember when joffy lube used to do the power purge oil change? they'd "suck" out the oil from the pan but in the process would use the wrong attachments and cross thread your drain plug thread.

I've heard many scary stories with them. I will be the 1st one to admit, that I have taken my car there once! My cousin works there and hooked me up with synthetic mobil. I had no time to do it, I was being a lazy azz.
