Didn't put the undershield back on after oil change. Will be driving with it off for a bit. Was going to cut an opening and use a steel sheet to cover it. To make oil changing easier, just like Daniel123588 did.

Next time just use a bungie cord to hold the plastic cover back while you drain the oil. only need to remove a couple of screws.

$125 from some random seller on ebay was the cheapest. $150 plus shipping everywhere else I saw.

Time to wash the car. Well, get everything out and then take a break. Maybe eat some lunch, then wash the car.

All I see are corn fields for miles and morons driving lifted brotrucks with confederate flags sticking out of smoke stacks. Surround by morons daily.

Madwi, I just had the lowest point an IT could ever witness....

We had a power outage this morning. Naturally all desktops went down. Common sense should apply and users simply hit the power button to turn the machine back on. Nope.... just had THREE morons submit a ticket saying the monitor wouldn't turn on. I walk out and hit the freaking power button on the desktop. Turned on instantly. 6 hours of downtime for them because 3 morons combined couldn't figure out how to hit a freaking power button....

I believe that. The day before my vacation when the power went out, I heard the question "So I guess these wont work with the power out in the building huh?" multiple times. Some even asked if I could tell them any tips or tricks over the phone how to get it back on.
