I've yet to own a vehicle where I couldn't do my own oil changes.

It's not that I, KMitch, can't, it's just too much trouble.  Jacking the car up, dropping the pan just to gain access to the filter.   At some point the "cost" of that exceeds not just the price of an oil change, but the satisfaction of doing it myself.

I know y'all are more than capable, Alf!  It helps that I enjoy the gear head stuff.

I've spent the summer rebuilding a thirty year old snow blower.  100 bucks for the used machine and another 100 or so in parts and she runs like new!  Saved myself 800-1000 bucks for a new one.

Before and after.  Just got the last bit of parts and she's finished.  The local Toro guy has been a big help as well!  It's a 1985 and everything is still available.
