Lawl when i brought my car down for an oil change they made nasty little comments on how i've modified my exhaust and the air intake. It's sad really that these dealerships complain about that crap you'd think they didn't care for your money all a sudden.

The guys at desantis in Brockton are always nice to me.
But their body shop is overpriced and rude.
A small shop close said $2300 to add my driver's quarter and do a color change.
desantis wanted $12000.
if I could do the quarter myself I would.

Oil changes are quick. We have low ramps and takes more time to get the socket for the plug. Plus the used oil gos to are highway department for heating.

That's where I bought my camaro and have had nothing but good experiences every time I walk in the door.

But now after the first break in oil change I do them all myself. All you have to do is log the miles and date in a notebook or the owners manual. Just As long as you can show a dealer you've been keeping up on the maintenance.

Herb connolly in framingham has been fantastic. Always gets me right in. Warranty work is a breeze and never a comment about my mods.

And the other 2 dealers are closer to me than framingham. but oh well ill drive for better service.
This, on all counts.

What kind of low ramps are you guys using? I want to start doing oil changes myself now that the free ones have been used up.

I use Race Ramps. Expensive, but worth it to me, as Rhino Ramps tend to slip on the smooth concrete in my garage.
