Good write up.

I've been maintaining my own vehicles since I was in high school, there's very little I can't do myself. My weak point is transmissions.

I'm gonna guess most of the kids here can't even change their own oil, and wouldn't even if they had the knowledge.

Amen

Hammertime, you have WAY more free time then me. Good info but I don't have a day to devote to maintaining my vehicle.

this is me. I have the knowledge but the time and cost to have someone else do an oil change is less than to do it myself.

I'm pretty good with mechanical stuff like suspensions and brakes, but engines and electrical stump me.

I'm 27 and this weekend I'll be changing a 4wd hub assembly, front rotors, and pads solo. Maybe $600-1000 in labor I'll be saving by doing it myself.
