You'd be surprised if you ask around how many people have had stripped threads on the drain bolt or filters put on too loose or too tight. I stopped once to check on a college girl pulled over on the side of the road because her engine light had come on. I looked underneath her car and noticed the oil pan bolt was missing. She had just left Jiffy Lube 1/2 hour before.

To each his own.
