Take 5 Oil Change, Houston

Since opening its garages in Metairie, Louisiana in 1984, Take 5 Oil Change has since spread its car-loving services across half the country. As the name's "take 5" implies, the company's philosophy is focused on brevity without sacrificing quality. In a matter of minutes, mechanics here fill up cars with fresh oil to keep engines purring contentedly. And that's certainly not all they do. Technicians also check out wiper blade function, give air filters a good clean, service vehicles' radiators, and adjust fluid levels in the automatic transmission. The best part is, Take 5 performs all these services while customers hang out in the comfort of their own car.
