$80 including labor is very cheap. My dealer offered to take care of my oil change last year for $450.

$80 including labor..... Wow, that's a killer price.
When I did it myself, I had $50 in oil and $15 for the filter.. total $65.
For the extra $15 bucks, I would have waited in the office and drank coffee.
