Default Oil change made easy

I did the oill changes in my SRT's yesterday and enjoyed doing them both. I bought a 6 1/4 gallon General Hydraulics oil extractor and hooked it up to my compressor. After warming the engine for about 7 minutes I inserted the suction tube down the dipstick tube and opened the valve. It took about 5 minutes to suck out all the oil. Popped in the new Mann filter (from German Filters, 4 pack for $58) and O-rings, added the 8 1/2 quarts of Mobil 1 and done in 20 mins each. I wish the filer was on the top of all my vehicles! What a piece of cake this makes it.
