That everyone thinks you have to take that shroud off to do an oil change... The dealer ONLY takes off the back 4, and bends the plastic down

yah, you dont have to take it off. you can also siphon up the oil from the dipstick if you want.

but for me, i use my ramps and im not about to go to the other side of that flapping cover just to drain the oil and make more work for myself.

Same here. I have only done one oil change in the driveway so far--no ramps but on jack stands. It seemed a lot easier to just remove it than to try to wiggle under it.
