Who checks their oil?
After doing an oil change? Do ya dump in the reccomended amount of oil, put the cap on, slam the hood down and takeoff? Or do you check to make sure it reads right on the dipschtick?

I get my oil changed at Jiffy Lube and check it before I leave the store. My truck has an capacity oil pan so I want to make sure they don't just put in the recommended amount.
Just remembered another time at a (oil change place) in a company truck they forgot to put oil back in. The (tech) asked if the oil gauge worked when he pulled it outside, Duh.
My two bad experience, so that's why I change my own oil since I was in high school, many decades ago.
