Get an oil filter wrench that specifically fits that filter and it couldn't be easier. On the LB you can see the filter from the top of the engine and just feel for it from under the bumper. Ramps will be handy if you need to see what you are doing and makes draining easier.

as long as my head doesn't get any bigger, i can keep changing my oil without the aid of a jack stand or ramp, but those will make it more comfortable. lol...
