    I sell those at the Chevy dealer I work at. Part number 14090908. They fit Toyota drain plugs perfectly.

    I was going to post this myself. It doesn't really save all that much time, but if you have the $25 banging around and you're going to keep your truck for a long time, it might be worth it. I've enjoyed mine.

    These work best on cars that have stupid plastic brush guards that cover everything. My wife's old car had one, and her new one does, too. I put a Fumoto on at the first oil change, then cut a small hole in the plastic cover so that I can reach it. THAT saves some time.

    True, true. Also keeps you from getting hot oil spilled on your hands.

    That's true.
    It actually takes a bit longer for the oil to drain but well worth the cost.
    YM4 was a 10% discount code.I don't know if it still works.

    none except for crappy hub caps and floor mats.
    Mine came with a hard plastic washer. I get usually a year out of it before I go the hardware store and buy another one for 20 cents.

    I just did my first oil change and I couldn't find any washer either. I finally saw that it was stuck on the oil pan.

    Same thing happened to me. It looked like it was part of the oil pan until I took a flat head screwdriver and scraped it off.
