do you take your car to an instant oil change place?

Seems to me the problem is us old guys getting down and then up again!
What a great way to get a local young guy (or car girl) into these cars. I know I have a number of neighbors "young men" that would be more than willing to do the crawling/ wrenching/ pouring for me if I would let them. You could dutifully stand by and inspect their work. After a number of times, they probably would/ could do it without so careful attention and you could pay them with a test run with them as passengers!

Uhmmm... no

What I have into my engine I could buy another minivan. Why do I want to let some kid tinker with my lifetime dream?

In addition, I like to inspect everything on the underside of the car every few months. There is nothing on these cars that is going to save your life. You might as well tip the odds in your favor by knowing that the bolts are tight, and everything is where it supposed to be.
