It could be worse: on my wife's Town & Country the "engineers" put the filter up on top of the tank, so you don't just lay next to the car, you crawl all the way under & drop the front of the tank onto your chest to get to the filter.
New filter: $30. Having your 3 year old master mechanic take all the mounting bolts, then run around the garage with the old filter, spraying gas everywhere while you yell at him from under the gas tank: priceless.
Change the ATF: remove the tranny pan completely, then helicoil the 3 bolts the Dodge dealer goons previously stripped & didn't bother to fix themselves. Any time I work on (or drive) that thing I wish we had the $$ for a 9-5 wagon. I don't think we always appreciate how easy the 9k is to work on in many ways.
