9-3SS First Oil Change. (Cheap at twice the price ?)

At 6000 km I decided, drain intervals be damned I was going to flush out all the break in debris from the engine and get an oil change. The oil life indicator showed 66% with a mix of short distance city trips and a number of highway trips to Toronto.
Done at Saturn, Saab, Isuzu of London (Ontario), it cost Canadian $94 of which $54 was for Mobil One Syn 0W30 and $11 was the filter. 4 litres of Mobil one 0W30 at Canadian Tire is $29, so the dealer is pretty fair in their pricing.
This is double what my former 2000 9-3 or my wife's current '97 900 cost for oil changes, but given the extended intervals (I'm going to follow the oil life monitor ffrom now on) it's actually cheaper in the long haul.
