I changed the oil in the wife's car tonight.

For years, I've been struggling with spilling oil on the driveway. At first I thought it was splashing out of the pan, but now I think there's a crack in the bottom of the pan I've been using. I also hate emptying that pan into a container to take to the recycling place. It always seems to spill.

I went to the farm store and bought a 5 gallon pan with a spout on the end. The car barely covers the bottom of it, but there's no splashing, no muss, no fuss, and it's easy to empty. Should have done that years ago. My only concern is that it's plastic.
