I am thinking of starting to do my own oil changes as it is a fraction of the cost and you don't have to worry about someone not respecting your car.

Wondering what supplies/tools everyone is using for a 1LT V6?
Tire ramps?
Just a floor jack?

Oil catch?

What oil filter brand?
What oil brand?

I am thinking of using Amsoil XL, but still do the changes every 4,000 to 5,000 miles.

Thanks for any advice.
