Title: Oil change costs may be headed for steep drop

A FYI:

I bet it'll be like the R12 shortage when it cost $30 a can, then they came out with 134A at about a $3 a can.  Then once everyone learned they could do the conversions themselves...all of a sudden 134A had a shortage and shot up $15 can. Then by golly R12 was all over the place again and the price dropped way down!

Before we invaded Iraq , it cost me about $12 to do an oil change. Now its about $30ish but im picky about my oil and filter selection.
