Ya, I spent the summer working in a garage in SC, and let me tell you, I was a big fan of doing oil changes in July. If I wasn't burning myself on hot oil, it was on hot filters, or exhaust manifolds, radiators.....yada yada yada
I noticed that also when I worked for a Ford Stealer four years ago. I swear that they drive their cars for hours before taking it in for an oil change.

The worst oil changes that I have done is on the Ford Powerstroke engines. The filter is huge and it takes 14 quarts of oil!! :eek:

Ya, I know exactly what you are talking about. Powerstrokes and Dodge Cummins' are the worst...the filters are an absolute PITA to get (especially the Dodge's). I'm sure people don't like having to pay for 12 or 14 qts of Rotella oil each oil change. Probably a $50-$60 oil change I am guessing.

The only relief this summer was getting to move customer's cars with the A/C blasting!

Hey...last time I ordered my Amsoil, i ordered the flush, but they didn't send it to me. They didn't charge me for it either, but i wanted it. I just changed my oil w/out it and will just do it next time i guess. The Amsoil seems to work great. Even after a prolonged oil change period, it doesnt burn any oil.
