If you look at the pics it looks like the HUGE oil pan is the cause.

Personally I'm not worried about the cost. Synthetic gets more mileage per quart then dino and with such a large capacity, you should be able to get 12-15k between oil changes easy.

Average cost of good synthetic 6.00
x
9.00 quarts
--------
= 54.00
+
an equally capable filter 10.00
--------
$64.00 to do it yourself, add a little more for a shops time. And if your going to go 15k miles between changes your gonna need that $10-$15 oil filter.
