I don't do any of the cars, but I do the MH myself. I had a F53 460 that I liked to feed Rotella 15w40 with zinc, and a high performance K&N oil filter. While under there I knew where every zerk was and that it was greased correctly. It also gave me time to review how things were looking, belts good, hoses not soft, pads still thick, exhaust looking good as are the hangers, electrical connections looking good and not corroded, shocks not leaking, etc...
Last thing I would do is spray the metal parts with ATF, my way of doing a poor mans rustproofing job. I never felt like the garage would take as much time as I did. I wanted to feel confident when I was outside of my home area that everything was in top shape prior to leaving.
