I won't flame you, most girls won't even look under the hood or even know what a oil filter is. I give props to you and other girls who like to get their hands dirty! It's not everyday you see a girl working under the hood...

roflol! Luckily I had my dad to supervise me and point out the oil drain plug and stuff, but we both couldn't find the oil filter cuz it blended in with the oil pan haha.. After we found it he was like "dang, that's alot easier to get at than your last car" haha

Here's a well-written oil change DIY. I agree with everything except going to the local Jiffy/Quickie Oil Change place if you decide not to DIY (bad personal experience):

Hey, that Michael T grill combo looks nice on the Lunar Mist, SolaraGirlie. Looks like my vow to not spend any more money on the daily driver SE might, just might expire soon. :D Willpower. . .
