$40 or less for an oil change with a high grade synthetic is pretty tough to beat otherwise. Wouldnt even come close to calling that ballin...esp when you do it maybe once a year
I run the Amsoil XL Series oil. Its guaranteed for 10k miles with severe driving, or 15k miles with normal driving. I change it about 7500-8000 miles. I can go damn near a year on a oil change. I buy a 12 quart case, and two filters, and that runs me just under 100 bucks shipped to my door. It would be 15-18 bucks cheaper if I picked it up from the warehouse in Dallas.
