If you've gone under the hood of a lot of late-model cars, you may have noticed something missing: the dipstick. Why do so many new cars lack them?

      Sure it does, it is in the driver’s seat.

        Wrong. That’s dipshit. Subtle difference.

        it’s a sweet silver E93 with no damage and still under 75k miles. It’s a sweet transformer!

        It only cost $12k but looks and drives like a $50k car

      My cyber truck doesn’t have a dipstick and I’m mad as hell about it. I bought it to feel like more of a man and I feel like less of man without a dipstick.

        I thought the dipstick in a cybertruck is usually found behind the steering wheel
