How much $$$ for oil change?

In reply to Mr. Peabody :

It's an idea, but I just don't think there is a large enough market to make it a profitable idea.

In reply to 68TR250 :

Just got the oil changed in the suburban.  $38.

I've heard the Amazon Synthetic is pretty good. Anybody have thoughts on that?

In reply to dean1484 :

It was the 600 mile service on my new bike.  They check a couple things but it amounts to an oil change and clearing the fault code in the ECU.  Nothing more than a shop would do when they change your oil and rotate tires on a car.

I stock up on filters from rockauto and have my wife pick up the oil on her walmart trips. I use pennzoil synthetic just because.

I know it's not that much cheaper, but I spent enough years in the business to know how much damage "lube techs" are capable of. Plus when I do it myself I get to have quiet time and drink beer in the garage. Plus working on my own stuff makes it easier to justify spending money on tools.

Its the same oil as the walmart synthetic. It's decent oil at a decent price.
