Oil changes are not all the same, as several have mentioned. Quarts needed, type of oil, etc. factors in. My last diesel pickup took 10 quarts and I used high quality oil, high quality filter, did it myself and it was probably pushing 80 bucks.

The other thing is that over the past 18 months or so certain oils have not been available, Shell Rotella T6, Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck, Mobil Delvac, and several others at least. I've been in Walmart and seen shelves virtually empty of truck oil in particular.

The days of $39 speedy oil changes are long gone.
