Thinking about getting one of these. It would make changing the oil a little easier http://www.quickoildrainvalve.com/

 

Unless you're in an R&D lab changing oil every day, I fail to see the need. Plus I have this funny feeling like any valve or adapter in the drain fitting (making the hole smaller) is going to block the bottom of the hole and retain a little of the dirtiest bottom-of-the-pan oil that I'd rather have drain out. Come to think of it, why not have the drain on the bottom of the pan? Just a HOLE.



That would be cool . . . until you snagged the plug on something driving down the road. Nevermind.
