Where do you go for oil change?
I have another 4weeks of recovery after hernia surgery (probably got it working on the stairs last year), so no oil changing for me.
So, where is the best place to take the rig.
Camping World, a Ford truck dealer...any ideas?

I assume by your model that you have a Ford Chassis, call your local dealer and ask if they can change the oil in it for you. Be prepared to tell them the height of the Coach to make sure it will go in their shop.
I did a search for a Speedco around your area and there are none, a lot of folks are using them these days with wonderful and happy results.

If the Ford dealer near you can't do it. Try calling a few truck service businesses they should be able to do it.
I have a mobile mechanic who comes to my house to do it. You may have one near you where you can offer the same arrangement.

Call the local Ryder or Penske truck leasing shop, ask for service,
Ask service who they use for local mobile service, they have weeded the useless ones out....
I once was branch service manager for Penske, we had the best 2 or 3 mobile service on speed dial...

OUR Walmart, in Janesville, is a super center. Their auto service has 13.6 high door, so they can do my class a gas. Paid $24.95 for oil and lube, checked air , filled win shield washer. Too. They also have a more expensive "rv" service. About $ 49.00....

The mobile truck service guys sounds like a great idea.
I'll give the Walmart some thought, as long as I can do the driving into the bay, I'd consider it.
