I (we) NEEDED this. OK the problem with this photo is, it doesn't tell us what dealership its at so we can go there for service! Which makes me think, will we finally get back to male equality again because of this auto industry problem, after such a long absence of that, so that we can come out of the closet and have beautiful women sell cars again? Blatantly? Instead of only jokes about males being allowed? If so, then maybe all this will be worth it! Famous quote, "middle aged men live their lives in silent desperation". Considering the recent past, nothing could be more appropriate. Full marks for this thread! I (we) NEEDED this.

At first look, I was awed by her unimaginable super ability to rock my world. Technically she may be doing something dumb, but no ones perfect, I can't fault her for anything. Still I'll need to get to know her before I let her near my nuts. Nothing wrong or bad about this picture.

The picture title is priceless. "Big tyres and bulky aprons? They may look attractive on a car. But the worldly woman prefers to snuggle into the sexy combination by Lorinser Lady Pant and Zip Jacket, which form together a stylish suit. Thanks to its comfortable cut and soft, robust material made of 92 percent cotton and 8 percent spandex, the outfit cuts a good figure even when changing a tyre. As you can see in our press photo. Anyone looking as unashamedly good as this won't have to wait long for her helpful knight in shining armour. And as a thank-you you'll be able to escort him into a trendy restaurant without having to change the Lorinser Look." That's... special. But yeah, she -is- wearing too many clothes. ;) Wow. The picture title is priceless.

The last thing I see that might be wrong is, she's not standing and bent over the iron to get more leverage. Then again, she can loosen my lugnuts in any position she wants.
