I agree. While I enjoy working on cars, I despise doing oil changes. In fact, I'd rather pay someone $40 to change the oil than to do it myself.

I've got 4 months left out of 12 until I change the oil, the anticipation is killing me!

I have to say my phone reminds me. When I enter my fuel information in the Automobil application on my Palm Centro, it will say you are due for an oil change when it's time.

I've gone an extra 500 or 1000 miles before, but that is usually due to hitting the 4 or 6 month timer, rather than hitting the mileage.

True, what's funny is when my family starts getting overdue on their cars, I start hounding them about it. Not even my cars, but it bugs the [censored] out of me! Even went as far as paying/doing it myself. 11.00 jug of MC5000 of course w/ ST filter, but hey

Just checked it about an hour ago. 2,000 miles, no consumption, no change in color. Weee gc!
