Dodge Ram 1500 got towed in for a no start, opened the door to see a bunch of fruit flys scatter away from the driver door then looked at it and saw a rotten banana.

Had police show up. Too many homeless people trying to make camp in our area. But did get to fix exhaust leak on H2. Had headers and was Supercharged. Pretty fast for a heavy SUV.

Why GM? Just why?

This is from a few months ago. My wife complained that her A/C smelled terrible, and it did, she bought the Cruze new in 2019 and never changed the cabin air filter. I thought "well it only takes 5 minutes", at least it did in my '17 Sonata, '23 Highlander, and literally every other car on the market. We bought the filter, and I got home and was completely stumped, I couldn't find a way to drop the glovebox. Started researching and found out I literally had to remove a bit of center console trim, the passenger footwell trim, passenger dashboard trim and then had to remove 5 bolts just to get the glovebox out so I can access the filter box. What should have been 5 minutes ended up being 1.5 hours, admittedly about 20mins of that was spent trying to find the correct socket that had fallen out of my toolbox. If I had to do it again, it would still probably take 30-45 mins. So, to the GM engineer that designed this damn thing...I hope you stub your little toe and it inconveniences you for like 1.5 hours.
