Full synthetic price

$70 for full synthetic at dealership.. rip off or about right?

Actually, I think that's pretty good. I usually do it myself, but I paid $90 last time I had Goodyear do it w/ Motorcraft filter. They sell Valvoline (which I didn't want because I didn't want to switch brands - I know, don't get started on that topic ...) and charged a little extra to use Mobile1 full synthetic. Tire rotation and all their other inspection stuff included.

Seems low to me. Jiffy lube, valvoline and mobile one oil change places near me usually cost about $85-95 bucks. I typically don't do dealer oil changes because its never a drive in and drive out always "come back in a couple hours".

Ok, yeah if I had more patience I’d probably do it myself but my dealership is pretty squared away for the most part. Total actually came to $63. I’m pleased

For a guy that installed a lift, full LED conversion, intake, catch can etc. I figured you'd do your own oil changes lol.

I know, I know. Well if I didn't have a slanted driveway, or live on a court that also slants to help aid in rainwater runoff to the sewers I most certainly would. Don't feel comfortable jacking it up and being under it on a sloped surface. Dealership has me in and out in 1 hour for these and is 10 minutes down the street from me so I figure why not!

Do it yourself. Mobil1: $26 at Walmart, Motorcraft filter: $4 at Walmart. With a No Spill Systems drain plug and adapter, you don't need a pan or tools and the old oil drains right into a gallon jug.

Made in USA/Canada, good stuff.

I use this on mine. Cuts oil change times in half. With the clear vinyl tubing I don't even have to drop the weird plastic cover under the truck

I do it on my driveway and I don't even need to lift it! If I park just right on the incline it's quite comfortable, but I can squeeze under there on flat ground too.

I actually can't do my own oil due to an aftermarket warranty. If its not changed by a licensed shop they'll deny any engine claims
