Oil Change on the road

While not a newb to RVing (many years), our upcoming trip will be our first of extended length.
Having been heavy equip mechanic for some years in the past, I do most of my own maintenance.
Now, I will be more than an oil change away from home and was wondering where others get their oil changed on the road.
With a class A, I'm guessing a truck shop of some sort.
Who do you look for? How does one go about finding reputable service on the road?

Not a beginner, but this might be considered a beginner question to those of you with experience.

Thanks in advance

    Is your Class A gas or diesel? Highway driving a diesel can go a longe way between changes.
  • Speedco is a option. Good idea to carry an extra oil, fuel and air filter.
  • Most Flying Js and Pilots have maintenance shops. You can also use the Alltays app to find truck service centers.
