C5 Oil Change - Great Experience
Got up this morning washed the Vette and decided to get the oil changed. Called the dealer, they were booked. Decided to try the Mobil One Lube place nearby. 
They were extremely professional and genuinely interested in my concerns. They let me drive it in slowly while the guy in the pit made sure nothing was going to scrape. They did the usual stuff and took extra care not to drip any oil on the engine when refilling the crankcase. They also vacuumed the debris that accumulated underneath on the radiator.
I would definitely recommend this particular location. Their employees seem very well trained, unlike most of the other places I have been to.

Glad it was a good experience for you, but it's a little far for me and most of us to travel

Thanks KernelDee,
I guess my point was, in todays world it is unusual to find people that really take pride in their work at the local oil change place.
I've been to many with other cars and never encountered this kind of service.
