    Driver's window issue

    Oil Question

    Hello all- This may sound really stupid, and perhaps it is, but this is my first car so I figured I would ask for advice. So, I got my oil changed not long ago, and I am planning on a longer road trip than normal tomorrow, about four hours, so I checked the oil and tire pressure and stuff like...
