my 2 cents

My 2 cents I hate the topside drain devices my son loves it. I don’t use it he wont do it with the drain bolt. As for getting out all the oil both methods leave over a quart of oil. Once some one posted that if you really wanted all the oil out you had to jack up the rear of the car real high to get the last two thirds a quart he is right. Almost a quart of oil is trapped in the baffles of the upper oil pan you can yank the engine move it around let it sit for months then pull the upper oil pan and what a mess a few cups of oil. The topsider is great for when you need to pull a little tranny fluid out. If because of environmental reasons you will change your oil more often with the topsider then get one ASAP shop around though my son bought his for half the price he originally saw it advertised for.
