Save Money, Learn Something Cool, and Do Your Own Oil Changes! [2023]

Today I'm doing an oil change on my 2017 Ford Explorer XLT. I'm not a mechanic but enjoy learning some basic maintenance. The steps involved with an oil change on most vehicles are pretty similar, so this is a good video to watch either way. #oilchange #fordexplorer #diy
If you DO check out the video and it helps you, please let me know in the comments below. I like to actually SEE my videos help people.
Some things to remember:
Perform oil change on level surface (so you don't get killed)
Wear heavy-duty gloves (oil is hot)
Be sure to review your Owner's Manual for correct type/viscosity of oil, as well as the location of the drain plug and oil filter
