which, if it isn't dead yet, is at least a dying breed. They are rapidly disappearing from the landscape.

I am, I'm ashamed to admit, unable to check the pressure on my tires myself or check or change the oil (not to mention change a tire, but that's another issue). Yeah, I know they are easy tasks, and I could learn to do them. But dammit, I don't wanna!

I used to take my car in once a month to the full service station to get the tires and fluids checked. So what if I paid a bit more for gas? I usually wouldn't even get a full tank. But now, with the price of gas, full-service is going the way of the dodo. Now there's no place to take my car to, so what am I going to do?
