I mean, $85 for an oil change on the BMW and roughly $72 for the Mercedes? Can't beat those prices IMO. BMW charges around $100 (they use 0W-20. Not 5W-30) if I am not mistaken. Idek if Mercedes solely does oil changes anymore since they have that service A/B crap.


Plus, I realistically pay about $45~ for an oil change on both the BMW and Mercedes. FCPEURO.com has a lifetime warranty on everything. All I pay for is shipping the used oil back.

So I've had some time to play around with my new Toy. This Fridge is absolutely incredible! The looks inside and out, the technology, the multizone temp control, the Beverage Station with built-in Water Pitcher, the 6lbs of two kinds of ice, the Ai features, the 30in HD Touch Screen and more.

Just picked this up at Costco. An impulse buy as it was 39.99 in store versus the 53.99 online...

I got the same one the other day. I believe it's a Costco-branded Apex8 model.

Brought more goddamn oil

Supertech oil for $19 and supertech oil filter for $4. Kinda nice not having to spend close to $100 for an oil change

Noticed the beater is due for an oil change in 200 miles. So, I guess this weekend Sunday will be oil change day for 3 cars

Picked up this Rolex Oyster Perpetual 31 for my wife from my AD last night.

It was her "unicorn" watch, and I can't believe she got her hands on one. These are *very* rare- at least on the non-secondary market.

Anything but RAINX! I stopped using their glass treatment years ago, because it slimed my wiper blades and made them streak badly.

Since I am an eco-terrorist, I only buy the arctic-grade washer fluid that's banned in several states. No slime, no bug remover, just a toxic alcohol concoction that probably shouldn't be handled without rubber gloves.....
