Does anyone know how difficult an oil change is for us do-it-yourselfers? Where is the filter located? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I just changed mine 2 weekends ago and it's no problem. The filter is center front of the engine. If you get under the vehicle from the front you can't miss it. They engineered a nice little shield to protech from rock punctures that also serves to channel the oil that spills when you spin the filter off. When filling it takes approx. 6 and 1/2 quarts so check the level before you put in a full 7 per the manual.
