I've had a few cars, and I can tell you that I have fully paid for my Z with the money I've saved over the years by teaching myself, reading manuals, and spinning a few wrenches..

For the most part I agree. I understand paying for advanced installs or if you just don't have a place to do it yourself. But refusing to check your oil?! No way!
I change my oil on my own and do all mechanical work that I know or think I can do on my own.
I do it myself on all my cars. Started on my very first V6 Mustang. Just last week I changed the spark plugs on my mom's car. Most people will take it to a shop and pay $100+ for it!!!
