Like FD, changing the oil on my 00 V6 SOHC Explorer is a PIA and always messy. The filter is vertical and near the exhaust pipe. It is impossible to keep oil from running down my sleeve to my elbow. Also the oil drain plug faces sideways, so when I remove the bolt it shoots the first quart of oil onto the right control arms.
I've tried a bunch of different methods to reduce the mess, but no luck. The past 3 times I've had Jiffy Lube do it. I used to have a 95 Camry 4 cylinder. It was the easiest and cleanest oil change. It took about 10 minutes and I could do it in street clothes.
