In regards to stupid, I've got you all beat:
Couple of weeks ago, I decided to change the oil in our 2003 PT Turbo. Only takes 5 quarts. Got it done and figured I'd bring the oil to my buddies shop for recycling. Driving to the shop I smelled oil and wondered if I hadn't tightened the filter enough. Opened the rear hatch to find the container had opened and spilled oil all over the place. Seeped into the rear carpets and smelled awful. Pondering what to do, I recalled the Farmers Insurance commercials, touting their unusual claims. I called my State Farm agent and they covered it. $3200.00! They stripped out the interior, cleaned everything, installed new carpets and mats, cleaned and conditioned the leather seats. All covered under the $100 deductible comprehensive coverage. No claim ding either. Makes your belching oil spill sound like a party!
