Put 5 quarts of oil on tire. Opened garage, got all my oil change stuff ready. Pulling truck in... BOOM. 5 quarts of oil now cover the majority of garage.

Hmm...last oil change was an epic disaster and was due entirely to negligence and laziness on my part. Broke my waste oil drain pan. So I grabbed a big kitty litter container and a funnel. Turns out the rate of flow thru the funnel is a lot less than the rate of flow of hot oil out of the pan! Put 5 quarts on the garage floor.

Then I put a gallon of Rotella in the motor thinking that it was enough...I didn't realize it was a gallon container and not a five quart container like I am used to buying. Wondered where 2 quarts of oil went. Lucky I didn't pop my already fragile motor.

Hung my new magnaflow glasspack with a turn down on it and completely forgot to put my hanger on. The pipe split between the cat and O2 sensor. Now its just got crappy welds holding it together untill i can afford a new y-pipe. I have a really annoying exhaust leak cause i couldnt weld around the entire pipe.. Sounds like poo poo

Put the right tire back on my sisters truck before checking the left brakes only to find out that the left brake shoes are shot and I needed to take the right back off to get the brakes off for a warranty trade.

Not truck related but, I was woken up to shotgun fire at 6am today, Geese hunters in the field next to us; way to close to us (this is a none hunting area also). So I jumped in my truck and started across the field only to stop and think they have guns and I don't (stupid on my part). So I parked beside there truck and called the law, they lost there guns, truck and I would imagine had some big answers to make.

I have nothing against hunters but please use your heads.

Last Thursday I attempted to take my beat up truck to the convenient store and totally forgot that the hood doesn't latch anymore and got a mile from the house before it flew up all the way back to the windshield.

Had to stand on the bumper and pull the hood back down, completely ruined the hood and destroyed the hinges.

Bad night.
