Place to get an Oil Change - San Diego

Anyone know of a good, reliable, reasonably-priced place in the San Diego area to get an oil change? The Lexus dealer wants $70!

Thanks

You serious???? I can change the oil and filter in my G for $30 or less. $20-25 for 5 qts of Mobil1, and under $5 for the filter and crush washer. Put car in driveway, drain oil into pan, refill from top. Not exactly rocket science.

No, its for regular oil, not synthetic. I found a shop close to home that Ill be buying my own synthetic Mobil 1 and taking to them to do next week. They want about 35 bucks which is better but still too much for bringing my own oil.

Id do it myself but I dont want to deal with disposing the oil and what not.

Put the dirty oil back in the container that the fresh oil was in, take it to Kragen/Autozone/etc. They'll take it for free.

i buy my own oil and take it to the firestone in Downtown. It's less than $30 if you just use their synthetic hybrid blend.

^^^A few months ago I went one and hung out with Scott at Relentless Autosports. That was behind the In-N-Out. I haven't been able to make one since. Thursday's have been really bad for me.
