It was not that bad. The dealer told me it sucks but it is really not bad. You will need a 10mm hex drive for the plug itself a 3" extansion and a ratchet for the plug and it will come right out with little to no mess on skid plate. The filter is way easier to get off and out once you tip the bed up and grab it from the top. I used a oil filter plier my dad had for the lawn tractors filter which worked good.
Maybe took 1/2 hour but was taking time to see what steps would make a mess but nothing got oil all over except me dripping oil when filling.
