My very first car was a Ford Mustang. Nobody told me I had to put oil in it or have the oil changed so my friend and I drove 35 miles to the beach. We were cruising down the strip (thinking we were sooooo cool) when we smelled something burning. We pulled over and the whole damn car overheated. There was smoke everywhere! It was very embarassing because EVERYBODY in the whole world (at least that's what it felt like) was staring at us and laughing. The moral of the story.....put oil in your car and have it changed every 3,000/5,000 miles!
