    Dad's garage maintains 2 Corvettes, 2 diesel Jettas, a GMC 6.6L diesel dually, an old Blazer that has served as the kids first car and now a 2006 Mini that my fresh out of college daughter recently purchased. I've learned through experience that the absolute most valuable tool in my garage are owners forums, so here I am.
