Default RE: First Oil Change?

ORIGINAL: Carbon

Dunno, but I went to my normal mechanic to get the oil change done and his parts supplier didn't seem to have the right stuff in stock when he called to do the job right and the oil was something like 8 bucks a quart and said I needed 7 of them.
8 bucks a quart??? Are you using synthetic? I went to Wal-Mart, picked up a few jugs of Castrol GTX 5W-20 ($15.00 for a 5 quart jug), a few Purolator PureONE filters and I'm ready to change the oil out. I'll take it to the dealer for the first one because they're gonna comp me on it, but afterwards I'll do it on my own.

MOT250: Thanks for the info about removing the belly pan!
