oil change

I took my car to the nearby Toyota for an oil change yesterday, at 18500 miles. It cost $44. This is the most expensive oil change by far that I've ever paid for.

Reportedly the mechanic did a bunch of other things like check the air filter, the battery, and "top off fluids." I think they even put air in the tires, but I have yet to verify that.

I bought my car just over a year ago from a dealer, and part of the deal was that I'd get free oil changes for the life of the car. I got three free oil changes out of them and then promptly moved out of state. *Sigh*. I do sometimes get back to my old stomping grounds so I have to find a way to coordinate my visits with my 5K oil changes.
