I don't recall right off the top of my head which way to turn that plug but when it is upside down like that, lefty loosy righty tighty doesn't always apply, there is the upside down factor, and reverse thread (I HATE that shit) factor.

And that is probably how much the Suzi shop here charges per hour too, but a damn oil change don't take an hour, it damn sure better not take a motorcycle mechanic an hour with his fancy lifts and all that. One more thing, that drain plug gets stripped easy because of the whole socket slipping off thing, it probably has nothing to do with it being "froze" on there.
