I guess to you. I just go out in my driveway and slide under the
car. Takes about 10 minutes out of my dar. How long do you spend
sitting the lube place?




In ten minutes you get the car up in the air, change the oil and
filter, inspect
and grease everything... SURE YOU DO!


I was talking just about the inspection part. Not the oil change part.
Also, I change the oil in all 3 of my cars at the same time. I go
right down the line. This way I do all 3 cars in about 1 hr or less. I
take the used oil to the auto parts store the next time I buy some.
Usually on the way home from work. So, I don't really spend any
"quality" time buying or returning oil.

If you can take 3 cars to your oil change place and get them all changed
within an hour and have quality work done at the cost I pay, then you
have got me beat. But I bet it costs triple and the time is at least
double.


Yep, three vehicles going to an oil change place
would be a riot and expensive. The two vehicles
that I change oil have highly varied usage and
since they are no longer under a guarantee program
I don't have a regular timed change program but
change oil based primarily on usage. The oil
changes times seldom coincide.
