I don't get it...why would anybody go to a dealer for an oil change??
Isn't that like shopping around for the most expensive place you can
find to have it done? I'm lucky, my buddy owns a repair shop so that's
where my oil gets changed. If I didn't have that luxury though, I'm
sure that I would use the local shop (not Bubba) with a good reputation.

Local Jiffy Lube for me is $49.99 if they use Valvoline Synthetic, $59.95
for Mobile One or $69.95 for Mobile One Oil and Mobile One synthetic Oil
