HOLY ****. $97 for an oil change.

Crazy.

Hell I brought my own oil to the dealership. They charged me $39.95 for the change including filter and new drain plug ring. Add the $24 for the mobil 1 syth and I was out $60. The $20 is a killer deal but basically you're charging $55 for oil and filter.




but bump for $20 oil changes. Good deal for someone that just doesn't have the time and is local. Drop that sucker off. Go to work. Come back. $20 and you didn't even have to take off your white sneaks.


oh and I exchanged emails with one of you guys a while back. I called but didn't get anyone.


Bumpers for bring you're own oil and filter. FTW!

$97 Thats about the same cost I pay at the quick changers.. I even give them my own oem oil filter and crush washers...

So I think its a really good deal.
Not also to mention that Kevin looks and checks over more stuff then anyone of us while doing it. He's even give a free hand to fix stuff at the same time. Most others would charge for.

If you can't (or are to lazy to) change your own oil you need to find a place to crawl off to and die....

Besides the oil change we also go over your engine to make sure everything is proper and in good order. We never just do an "oil change".. We go above and beyond whenever anyone has their car in for servicing of any kind.
