I would rather spend $1000 and do it myself and I wouldn't even spend just $1 to have a shop do it for me. I get through with a job and I come out with the knowledge to help others and I can also step away and look at what I just did, crack open a beer {or six 
} and pat myself on the back for a job well done. 
That's awesome dude!!! I taught my wife how to change the oil on her '99 taco. haha, so when the time came to change the oil, I'd go buy the stuff and sit and drink beers while I observed. she actually liked changing it.
