I start think about oil changes maybe 6 weeks before a trip. If it's gonna be close I have the oil changed.
So there I was in about 1975, sitting in the waiting area of Sam Montgomery Olds in Houston. Before long it was just me and a cute soccer mom. I asked her what she was having done. "An oil change". Your husband can't do that? No he went to college to tell others what to do and to be able to pay others to do things like oil changes. Uh uh, OK I see. I crawl under the rug.
I always did as much maintenance as I felt comfortable doing. When we bought from a small country Jeep/Ram/Chevy/Ford dealer they asked about bringing the Jeep back for routine service. That was 12 years ago. They charge $10 labor for a oil change.
I bring the oil and filter. They do the fuel system filters on the Ram for a good bit more. I stand outside the oil change house and watch.
I would say find a shop that has a pit, not a lift. If you can get it in the bay doors, they can work on it.
Don't go in the waiting room and watch TV. Hang around and watch them.
Never had to wait more than 2 days for an appointment.
