Just had mine done today at our local Ford dealership. They have one service writer who does RVs. Called Tuesday and got an appt today. $63.30 and took just over an hour for oil change and chassis lube.

Yup, Ford dealership is not a bad choice.
It is quite straightforward and not too difficult to do yourself.
I used to do ours.

I carried oil and filter ( enough for the trip , had it changed 3 times on Alaska trip ) and stop in any truck repair shop ( they won’t have your oil or filter ). I’ve had It done in the parking lot of Ford Dealers who didn’t have a proper lift [emoji1]

I’ve used Speedco for a few years. They sold out to Love’s, price has increased, and skilled employees have evaporated. Saw recommendations for Rush Truck in McAllen TX. That was a mistake, completed price was a lot more than quote. I arrived at 8:45 am, departed at 6:00 pm. For a oil change, lube, and generator oil change. And I brought my own replacement filters.

Very easy to lift the front end with my levelers , put two safety jack stands under the frame and slide right under to drain it. Transmission fluid too.
Our waste disposal service takes used engine oil on trash day.
What engine do you have?

Great!! I used to do things on my car but this DP is just too big a job. Last oil change was done last month and it takes 28qts. That 7 GALLONS of oil! Think I will let them do it!

Using a quick open oil drain plug, it's easy to fill a pan, shut off, drain the pan into an empty 5 gallon bucket, and repeat till engine is empty.
Then, use a 5 gallon pump to put the new in.
Bring the old back to where you bought the oil or a TSC for recycling.
Same as the car, just more qty. The drain plug makes it straightforward without having to make a mess.

Do mine myself, don't even need to raise it up, and grease while oil is draining. Thirty minutes and done, if its gas.
