Fuego has a point here. I grew up watching Dad fix our cars, so I expected guys to do that kind of stuff. I remember finding out that a guy I dated in high school took his car in for oil changes--I was stunned and embarrassed for him!
DH grew up fixing cars, so he fixes ours now. And we never run out of repairs for him to do--this weekend is the rear shocks on his Saturn. A big pending project is the 1984 Mercedes we bought for him to run on grease. That will be an ongoing one, as he has lots of little things to fix on it.
Some of my best father/daughter conversations happened while my dad was working on our family cars: he had the time to listen and I loved watching him work. Good memories.
