Checking lug nuts
I have gotten into the habit of checking my lug nuts every time I do an oil change to make sure they are not loose and are torqued down properly. Am I being over paranoid in doing this or is it good to do? Is anyone else this OCD and do the same?

I torque them in 3 stages including 2 with a torque wrench, when the wheels go on. I've never had one come loose yet.
But you know what? You're not hurting anything and it just takes a minute.
