$25/gal for coolant - ouch
So after 3 1/2 years my car finally needed a bit of coolant added so I stopped at a local dealer this morning to pick up a gallon. $25 WTF! Of course it only needed about a quart...
Thankfully now the tranny and diff fluids are down to just under $10 a quart. They were way more a few years ago when I checked.

Oh, just re-package the remaining 3 quarts and sell them for $10 per quart (plus shipping and handling).
$10 x 3 = $30. See, it was an investment with high yield ......  humfrz |
