Venza Oil Change cost at Dealership

I went for first inspection for Venza at $5k miles. I asked how much it costs to get oil changed, and dealer quoted $140.😲 I was shocked? BWM dealers used to charge that much for 7qt of Eurospec syth on 6 cyl car, and typical oil changes with Synthetic used to $50. That how much my Honda Dealer charged for Odyssey with 0W-20 Sythetic oil. Off late I heard people getting charge even $80 by Toyota dealers for Seinna.

I got shocked for the amount they want to charge, I called another 3 Toyota dealers, one gave $155+Tax (170), one gave $120+Tax(132), one gave $100+tax(110). Its strictly oil change, no other services like Tire rotations, inspections etc.

So, for dealer cost of less than $30 in parts, and may be 15 mins tech and overhead 15 mins, I can't believe they are able to charge that much. Is this something going on in Seattle water that they think they can get away?

I did oil change at 1200 miles, then I am thinking doing at 5k, got oil and filters from Dealer. I was thinking to keep records until warranty expires get oil changed at Dealers. But I guess I have to do it.
