Reply #34: My car blew up as I approached Dallas. [View All]

[Maddy McCall]

Had to be towed home by my father. First night, we stayed in a roach hotel. And I do mean literally a roach hotel. Second night, we stayed at a Best Western.

Then my dad towed us home. Come to find out, the quick lube place that "changed" my oil--didn't. Didn't change the filter either. Just topped off my oil with a little more oil, which means that they overfilled my oil, and they left the old filter on.

I'm persuing having the quick lube place pay for the new motor.

I had heat exhaustion on the way home from Dallas. Was sick for a couple of days.

It was the road trip from hell. :(
