Oil Changes, am I missing something

I see there has been several post claiming $150 oil changes. Am I missing something or are these folks crazy? I just changed my oil this past weekend and spent a total of $47.95. This was Rotella T 15w40 (1 gal.) 4 of them @ $7:00 each and Motorcraft oil filter at $19.95. I dare not let anyone else change my oil. This is my baby and I know it is done right when I do it. My wife has only driven my truck 2 times in the last year and half.

Closer to $100 and that's if you use a synthetic.
