Synthetic oil only
I pay jiffy lube like 75bucks to change my oil every 7 to 9000 miles.
I only use Mobile one synthetic oil. Regular oil runs away from heat, but synthetic oil runs toward heat.

i do it myself b/c of all the scary stories I've heard from friends going to Walmart or express lube places. Forgetting to put the oil cap or oil filter on, stripping drain plug threads, not changing the oil filter.
Also gives me a chance to get under the car and are what's going on.
