Where do you get your oil changed?

I get Mobil 1 5w-30 and a Mobil 1 Filter at Walmart in Southlake, Tx

I used to do it myself, but my jack is low on oil, and it is a non-user serviceable AC Delco POS 2 1/4 ton jobber. I want the qiuck action 2.5 ton job, one pump, and your on the frame! God, that would be sweet!

I have the dealer do it. My friend is a service guy there and he looks after it.

I do mine, I either use mobile 1 or Castorl syntech, If I could afford it I would use Redline synthetics. By the way what does the "HM" in your handle mean?

It refers to the fictional charachter Howlin' Mad Murdock from the hit '80's show "The A-Team" (not referring to Chevelles). It is my favorite TV show. Ever.

I basically have the same deal with a local Shell gas station... the mechanic knows my family so he takes good care care of my Hawk.

Here is a link to the oil I mentioned. While it is expensive (aren't our cars worth a little extra?) it is a superb lubricant. http://www.redlineoil.com/
Read about it and check the prices. I found out about this oil when I was road racing motorcycles.

Lingenfelter uses redline in his engines, so it must be good.

I do it, Mobil 1 5-30, K&N filter (prolly not necessary) usually less than every 3K miles, I actually enjoy it.

Mobil 1, change it myself every 2000 which is about every 5 months
