low cars and oil changes?
so i went to 2 toyota dealers on friday trying to get an oil change (this is only my 3rd oil change and toyota give you 4 free) neither one had a pit and couldnt get a lift under my car.
anyone know of a oil change place, that you trust, that has a pit? ive got about 2.5" of ground clearence in the front and cant make it up the ramps to get on a lift, and i dont trust the swing arm lifts because of my side skirts...
i will gladly pay the $20 bucks to have someone else do the work, so dont suggest i do it. and i still havent found a jack i can get under my car anyway, lol.

why would you have 2.5 inches of clearence. thats just retarded.
fyi.. drive on little block, 2x4 or whatever you have laying around. put jack under car, raise car, change oil, lower car back onto blocks, drive off. easy

very easy, and there are jacks out there made for lower cars. my cousin has an aluminum jack he spent like 300 bills on, and his car is lower than yours.

Roll up on a 2x4 then on to some brick pavers, then onto the ramps.
it was a process, but it worked...

I can get your car on a lift at my work.
I do it with my car all the time, and I am WAY lower than you.
You can get my number from Lacie if you want, I can even do the change for you for free, if you have the oil/filter.
