Default Doh!

Well I took the Tahoe to work today cause I had to bring home boxes for our move and I get a call from my wife saying, " your car is leaking oil everywhere"! I knew right away what happened. She backed out of the driveway too fast and straight and cracked my oilpan. Sure enough, I get to her work and there is a pool of Royal Purple running out from under the car. So needless to say I'll be ordering a new pan and installing it next week, fun.

Hey, I just craked my oil pan too, but for me it was courtesy of a F'in rock on a camp road. And the parents didn't give me the DIY option, so I just got her back from the shop (a full week later)
