Long nose car, drain plug at rear, and not enough clearance for even a skinny guy like me to fit without lifting it up.

Jack and jack stands. Get out the creeper, and get under there.
 
Pfffft, changing oil is so yesterday. I just throw a new engine in there and call it good for another 5k miles.
On engine #12 for the Ody.

Wow, Honda quality has really dropped off since I owned my Civic

Truck, I can just barely fit under it to remove that $&*^% skidplate. That and my Camry need no jacking. My wife's Camry though needs to be jacked a good inch, maybe two. So I usually just jack that, skipping the jackstand--seems wrong but it's all of an inch or so that I need. I'd use ramps but I prefer to do oil changes on cold engines.
 
The Cherokee I can fit under perfectly with no ramps.

Most vehicles I service the Rhino ramps I have work fine. The one tough one is my friend's 2005 BMW 330i ZHP. It is lowered a bit, and with the bumper it has on it the ramps don't quite fit. It is much easier to use a low profile jack and put it up on stands.
