Mobil One

[Gussie2000]

Had big plans today to have the Oil change on the VX. Over the past 7 years I have driven by one of those "Mobil One Instant Oil change" places, but today when I actually went there it had changed to "Valvoline". Before I got my diesel trucks I would use them (Valvoline) all the time. Haven't had to for about 6 years until today. Boy did I get a shock. $ 35.00 for "regular oil" $45.00 for "Blend" and $75.00 for Full synthetic. I have a $13.00 gallon of Rotella and a $3.50 filter. Guess I'll be doing it my self.

It's very easy to do the oil changes your self.

I know, but I was spoiled when I was a teenager. Worked in a full service gas station and got used to using the "hoist" for any work under a vehicle. Currently am in an RV park and they sort of frown on "Auto Service " in the park. Was thinking I could wait for another couple months until I get "back home", but I like driving the VX too much. 3000 miles in the past month at that rate would be 9000 on an oil change that I didn't do. Will check a couple other places. Did pick up a filter though maybe do it by braille some evening after the "Management" goes to sleep.
