Went for oil change...
got the 96 max like a week ago... decided to get an oil change for it...
the previous owner said he had syn oil and was always using that... i decided for the first time with the car... i'd goto nissan and get the oil change done once by them, so i can check under the car, and just generally see where everything is placed... I looked at the oil filter the guy pulled off.... the previous owner was using a fram filter... i am sad... after everything i've been hearing... i dislike fram filters very much...
anyways... not much point to this post... i'm just a tad bored at work... figured it be sumthin to do.. hehe
hmm the oil filter they instelled is pretty good quality i assume...
cost me like 68$ for the oil change... 13.50 in labour charges... yikes...
well... got it done once... probably never again... heh
well gotta look busy... i'll just stare blindly at this non functional xml editor i'm working on... hehe

Sprint, you're getting reamed as well.
5 quart container of Mobile 1 5W-30 at Wally World: $17.88.
Sears has Purolator Plus oil filters for $2.50 on sale right now. As good or better than OEM IMHO and based on the Oil Filter Study.
So.......Sprint got ripped as well...

$68 is ridiculous for something that you can do yourself.....

plus it allowed me to check under the car... and all that other uhm... fun stuff.. yeah....
