Ziggie:

Don't bother with Jiffie Lube. Go to your local honda dealer. The
three or four around my home usually have oil changes for $30-$40,
which should be competitive with the "lube" places. The "lube" places
will pull out your micron or engine air filter and tell you it's
dirty. Of course they're dirty. Even after two weeks, they'll be
dirty. That doesn't mean they are at the end of their duty cycle.

My local Honda dealers go 22.95-26.95 for oil changes. Cheaper than Jiffy
Lube. I trust them a bit more.

Your dealer has late afternoon or Saturday hours for oil changes? No way
am I gonna take off work, or leave a car all day, for just an oil change.

Our local Toyota dealer charges $24.95 for an oil change in 29 minutes or
the next oil change is free, and the service and parts departments are open
Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to midnight and Saturdays from 8:30 AM to
5:00 PM.

My local Mazda dealer did an oil change AND a car wash. They did not
guarantee 30 minutes, but it was difficult to beat the price and service.

If a Toyota dealer has a 30-minute or less guarantee, or less, I can't see
any objection to getting an oil chage at the dealership, and the service
ought ot be superior to that of the quick-lube places.

I don't trust dealers either -- it's entirely likely that they give you
an oil change for below cost and then ream you on an engine rebuild.

The local Cadillac dealers are as close to criminal as it's possible to
be and stay out of jail.
I don't suppose you've noticed that all the judges are driving
Caddies.
