2009 Chevy Malibu with 2.4L Ecotec. Super Tech 5w30 with Fram cartridge filter. OLM at 13% after 8100 Miles. Also got free rotate and balance on the tires because I previously bought the Lifetime deal from WalMart at $7.50 a tire. So an Oil Change and tire service came to a grand total of $27. Can't beat it.
The new owner of the shop I've done business with for the last twelve years charged me $55 in January for an oil (Castrol GTX 5w30) and filter (NAPA) change for my 2007 Impala. Told myself I'd never go back, but he does "soft" state inspections or at any rate has never "upsold" me.
I asked him today after another uneventful inspection if he would take $10 to change my oil ($13 Castrol GTX 10w30 gallon) and filter ($6.49 Purolator Pure One). He wanted $20 but settled for $15. Not too bad, and he's close to my house.
Also, with the future in mind, I saw the ad today at Advance Auto Parts for five quarts of Valvoline conventional and a Purolator Classic filter for $16.99.

2005 Pontiac Pursuit 2.2L Ecotec 66,511KM (41,569 Miles)
Formula Shell 5w30
Napa Gold 7082 Filter (Wix)
Car has had a steady diet of Pennzoil Q-L shop bulk dino at 5K KM intervals since new. Switching to a *known* top tier brand bottled oil and will extend to 5K Miles.
QL shop's choice of filter came out wonky (pleats collapsing) so went with a good quality Wix this time.

The mileage numbers are slightly rounded, but I promise to do better next time! I bought some 12,000 LB ramps with my AAP coupon the other week so I decided to put them to good use.

1999 Hyundai Elantra - 47,000 - O'Reilly Synthetic 5w30 with Mobil 1 filter ($17.99 special)- This one has been driven since new by my wife for very short distances on city streets in Northern Mexico. Only one freeway in town and she never gets on it.

Last weekend, I changed the oil in my Silverado. Amsoil Series 3000 5w30 HDD with Amsoil Ea 032 filter.
2002 Maxima
Used the longer 3L filter, 51348 I believe (Wix)
And the oil used was Quaker State Advanced durability 10w30 full syn.
Just shy of 100k miles on the odo.
