I do my own oil changes. I use Mobil-One Full Synthetic 5W-20 oil and Ford Motorcraft oil filters. Both sold at Walmart, reasonably priced.
One thing I do that most people probably don't. I place a very strong magnet outside on the bottom of the oil filter to capture all floating metal particles inside the filter. I place a second one on the transmission pan.
I use magnets from old computer hard drives, the strongest I found.
