Yep, that's the way I do it!
(What this picture doesn't show is, the bottle of Schlitz in my other hand as I'm chugging it while dumping the oil).

When I was growing up, we used to do oil changes by straddling the ditch by the house and pulling the oil plug.

We used to have some dirt roads, and the county oiled the roads periodically to keep dust down anyway. Just had to make sure no one was coming for a few minutes.

You don't put new oil in, or change oil filters lol?
Fumoto saves me a ratchet, not a ton of time 5 minutes at most.

On that part, I was just saying how easy it is to drain. I can reach under, not having to crawl under, without any tools. And absolutely no mess. Before I installed the valve on this truck, every vehicle I have done oil changes on, for more than 50 years now, there was always a mess. I don't care if there was no breeze at all, for the previous month, as soon as I pulled the plug, the gale force winds started, blowing the draining oil, all over the place. Even in a garage it seemed. LOL. Of course I still have to do the filter, but it's way easier, with the remote filter kit, that allows a larger filter.

As a Kid, we did the same thing. We lived on a dirt street, in the suburbs. We had city water, so didn't have to worry about ground water. Where I live now, I have a well, and don't want to do that.

Got mine installed yesterday along with an oil change using the 899 filter.
