For an oil change, you're probably looking around $75 at most places... and yes, a Toyota dealership can handle the oil change.

Toyota is around $70-$75
Lexus $120-$140 - free coffee, free soda, free granular bars, fruits and vanilla cake, so load up those to make up the differences Haha!

Lexus will also pick up the vehicle and bring it back afterwards, to your home or work, or get you a loaner Lexus if you prefer.

is Lexus really that much? i have CPO now with the complimentary services for 20k, to keep the warranty i must use them for the oil changes instead of doing myself. $75 isn't too bad but $120+ is a rip off.
i do like to take advantage of their free soda/coffee. and my Lexus dealer has a rooftop patio, massage chairs, pool table, movie theater.....i have remote worked from there a few times now.

You get a report in an email, plus they might even check your floor mat installation! I took it once or twice to see if it was worth it. The time saved scheduling and then coordinating was enough for me to do my own. Sometimes I wonder if they even do 1/2 of the work they are supposed to, the oil housing was on way too tight, and the bolts going into the small crossmembers broke when I loosened them. Don't know how they changed the inner filter without removing those, but it did not appear as though they had ever been removed.

You should be able to do your own maintenance as long as you keep your receipts to stay within warranty compliance.

If they are telling you that and I am no lawyer by far... but that would seem to be a violation of the Magnusson Moss Warranty Act.

the 10k services are a joke. i just had my 40k complimentary service done. i asked what is covered and they said oil change and tire rotation (free at discount and quicker). they did replace my battery free of charge though.
