And it begins...

First you buy some oil and a filter.... Then you borrow a few sockets and buy a jack or ramps from pepboys....

You slowly buy screwdriver sets and ratchet sets from your local sears or home depot...

You start amassing tools... Next thing you know you've got a $1,000 snap-on rolling tool chest and 8 different 14mm sockets.

That Snap-On box is going to cost a little more than $1K

Don't be scared about changing your oil, it's pretty much self explanatory. But I do advise you to USE JACK STANDS!!!

$12...lol he prolly made like $2...great friend

i dont change my own oil anymore. It's way too messy and time consuming to save $10. I bring it to a shop and get it done for $20. I do get worried if they tighten up my drain plug everytime i pull out tho.
