I have often considered changing my own oil. But I usually figure the financial payback is not there ( would I buy want to buy enough oil to make it worth it? then I have to store / dispose of it)
Besides for $20 and being out of there in 20 minutes - is it such a strain that I need to start doing myself?
I am sure the "self satisfaction" of doing it would probably get me to break even.
