Anybody ever changed the oil on a Jeep Liberty? They invented a new form of torture. I mean as soon as I had one bit of confrontation with a shop that's doing work on my car id say you know what give me my keys i'll see you later. This is like dropping your kids off at the babysitter and telling her what a **** she is.

Good point,

Or he doesn't have an appropriate place to change it, perhaps he lives in an apartment.

I use 6 quarts of 5w-30 Mobil1 oil every 3000-3500 miles. And it gets changed at home and i am not the most mechanically inclined person...

lol I have to go home to my folks house to change my oil for that reason.

lol @ nerd telling our buddy to man up.

My dad and I argue about this every time I change my oil. He always says 5, I always say 6. It is 6 as everyone on here has said.

The last time I had one of those places change my oil, they sent a 16 year old girl to ring me up, she tried to sell me the whole dang store. Thus, I drive home now to change my own oil.
