Re: Any way to get at the oil filter other than from underneath the car?
Floor jack, huh? Interesting - I haven't heard that term
 In fairness to whoever invented the names, trolley jack (for its wheels) seems to be a bit more descriptive than "floor jack" considering that - basically - ALL jacks sit on "the floor" when they're working.

Re: Any way to get at the oil filter other than from underneath the car?
If you use a trolley jack for $30 you also need to buy some jack stands for another $20 to rest the car on when you are under it. I like the trench idea but make sure you have proper shoring on the sides. I have also used the curb idea that Jeff suggested in a pinch.

Believe me, you don't have to be from Michigan to refer to an "ink pen!" I have a FLorida Cracker friend (4th generation Floridian) who says that. Yup - redundant.

You could install an oil filter relocation kit if you really wanted to.
