I paid $55 for the same synthetic blend last year. Damn you inflation!

They probably didn't change anything but the sticker if you went to the waiting room.

You paid $55 for an oil change that lasted you a year?

Go to Walmart or get a Midas coupon.

I take my truck to the dealership where I bought it for all maintenance. $80 for an oil change is normal. But I understand your frustration. If not for the fact I expense all my vehicle maintenance, I’d be pissed.

Just render down chicken wings and use that oil.

Oil is oil, right?

I drive a Rivian and don't miss oil changes and getting FUD about transmission fluid.

$80K midsized truck. You paid for thousands of oil changes.

Some of these oil places are getting as desperate as dealerships. One just got my wife for $100 for an oil change. Said she felt like prey as they kept coming back over and over trying the hard sell on shite and getting mad when she refused. (They ultimately got her with the synthetic change before she realized.) Said she did better than another guy, though, because he was trying to figure out how his bill was $200. Told her I'll take the cars from now on.

Price out what it cost to DIY… probably $35 cheaper. Not exactly highway robbery

Now a certain German dealership charges $200 for oil change

That said I changed my own in 4 cars

Build back better, Jack.

Every oil change place I've been to in the last decade will allow you to bring your own fluids and fitters, and will charge you a nominal amount ($20-30).

I do all the maintenance on our vehicles and heavy equipment. I’ve saved a ton of money over the years doing it.
