[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"I am not at all mechanical" neither are we and we learned to give our own cars oil changes during covid and still do them. I leaned how to cut DH hair during covid and still do too. We have moved on and have changed breaks and a car radiator, batteries, replaced some switches, worked on the suspension. Keep learning new skills it keeps life interesting and you get a huge sense of pride from taking care of your own stuff and not having to rely on everyone else to do things for you.[/quote] I’m not interested in risking my life on some shaky car ramps or worse jacks. How are you getting your car lifted?[/quote] The plastic ramps (Rhino-brand, if it matters. You can find them everywhere) are plenty sturdy and stable. You just drive up them slowly and stop when you feel your front tires touch the raised lip. Totally safe. I just did my oil today in fact. $24 for 5qt jug Mobil 1 5w-20 synthetic and $9 for a filter. So I paid $33 dollars and 20 minutes of my morning to do it myself. You can’t even get through Jiffy Lube in less than 20 min. And wayyyy more money at the lube place. That’s like a $90 savings over what OP is paying. [/quote]
