David McFadzean wrote this episode where Dan tries to fix his truck with the dubious help of his friend Dwight (William Sadler in his second and last appearance on the show).  Dwight is interested in Jackie, but the audience and Roseanne can see what a sexist pig he is.  Jackie tries to give him a chance but gives up when he gets crude with her.  Dan thinks Dwight is heartbroken, but Dwight soon sets his sights on Crystal.  The tag scene with Dan and Roseanne sitting in the front seat of the truck is sweet and funny.  Barr's real-life first husband, Bill Pentland, plays Dan's other friend Freddy Meeker and would later write a couple episodes.
