How many women know more about cars than their SO?
I have changed my car's batteries/headlights/oil/tires several times in college and top off the fluids regularly.
How about you?

Edited to add hubby is a computer engineer that has no clue when it come to servicing a car and will not change a tire either (God love him) will wait for AAA instead.

    I drag race and my husband is my "pit crew." I can't say I know AS much about the hands on as he does, but I do work on the car too and know what I'm doing. But, I do all the tuning.

    New car for this year, she should be a beast!

    I love to hear about other women knowing how to turn a wrench!
