Oil change shop gripe.

So im cheap and like easy like many people. So i got my oil changed at my local place. Ive never really thought twice about checking out what they do on a oil change. So im off this morning running late trying to get to a zipline tour. Pretty pumped, drop the pedal, so i get in the hammer lane right away. 30 seconds later the smoke is amazing, i pull over and all my oil is gone. I had it towed to the oil change guy. I give him credit for admitting that he screwed up. He mangled the gasket on the new filter and didnt notice it. So i get another oil change and 20 bucks to get a car wash. All of their work is warrantied, so if i develop engine problems they will be taken care of. Engine problems to me means if i dont hit 200k on the cherokee there is a problem. So now im a bit nervous to drive the thing any distance. To fish or not to fish...

Everything is better on the rocks.
