Last year I bought a funnel with about an 18" clear plastic hose with a plastic fitting and cap on the end at Walmart. The hose just fits over the oil dip stick tube. Very simple refill. I put a zip-tie on the funnel and either hooked it to the Windshield Wiper or the ladder. I don't remember now.

Before this solution I had purchased some clear plastic hose of the same diameter at Lowe's and run the hose to the fill hole. This was a real pain. Glad I found the easy-peasy solution.

Hardest job was building ramps out of 2x12s with a long shallow approach to get the low-slung Axis up in the air. Thought my days of crawling around on the ground under vehicles was over, but with cost of oil change and lube for an RV I am back on my back.
