where do you change your oil here in dfw

I was just wondering where do you guys change your oil and bring your mazda for service here in dallas/ fort worth. Any particular places that specialize in rotaries?

I am using the dealership since it's free. Even after the free maintencance is up I will still probably use the dealership.

Well I asked since it looks that technicians at the dealerships do not know much about rotary engines. They exchanged oil in mine with a semi-synthetic. After I asked why they said: well synth is better isn't it? They did not have any idea about the whole debate around the topic and that mazda first did not recommend using synt oils and than said it is ok to do so... I would still prefer to use dyno and deal with technicians that know what they're doing. By the way what dealership you use? It seems you're from the area.
