Popular Mechanics came up with the list of these tasks and many I think are right on target. I’m actually surprised at the number of auto-related tasks that are on there, but changing a flat on a car didn’t make the list.
A few of those I have no clue how to do from start to finish. A few of them I’m not sure if they are “must know” things or not. There’s probably a few other things that are more important in my opinion as well.
What things are missing from this list in your opinion? Is there a link online to how to accomplish the task that’s missing? Share it with us in the comments.
