I use ramps. Got mine at Wally World. It is real easy to just drive up. Block the rear wheels.
I have been using Castrio Edge with a K&N filter. Next oil change I will be going to Royal Purple with a K&N filter. Just pick up a drain pan from any auto parts. If you use a K&N filter they have a 1" nut on the bottom. I think you will also need a 15mm on the drain plug. I have a Gold drain plug and it uses a 13mm.

Good luck. I have been doing my own oil changes for 30 years.

I heard Amsoil is great oil.

When you do it yourself you know it was done right.
