Had a day last week where every single bolt came loose on the first try

I was swapping out a bad alternator on a 2014 F-150 and usually I'm fighting rusted bolts for half the job, but last Tuesday everything just broke free with no fuss. Got the whole thing done in under an hour - anyone else ever have one of those magic days where the car just cooperates?

Haha yeah man, those days are rare as hens teeth for me. I swear my truck knows when I'm in a hurry and decides to weld every nut and bolt on there just for spite. Had a coolant flush go smooth once and I almost didn't know what to do with myself, stood there staring at the driveway for a solid minute.

Ha @simon_wood72 right there with you man, had my '06 F-150 hand me the oil drain plug like a gift last month and I just stood there grinning lmao
