[QUOTE="hppants, post: 1320047, member: 27852"] I wouldn't get overly torqued about missing the service. It's not like he's going to push it to 5000 miles. He'll have less than 1000 miles when he gets home. Another option would be to stop at walmart and change the oil in the parking lot. The mechanic there will loan you a pan. You can pack 3 tools to get the job done. Fair warning though - the oil filter will be on TIGHT from the factory. I'd bring the cup style wrench and pray you don't collapse the filter trying to get it off. If it were me, I'd just ride it home and do the break in service then. Edit - ^^^^^^ Wheatie's suggestion is a great compromise. Regardless - that ride is the PROPER way to break in a new FJR. I'm jealous to be sure!!!!! [/QUOTE]
