Best apparatus for an oil change?

I will be needing to change 15 quarts out of each of my Cummins 210's. I've seen manual pumps, pumps attached to large oil cans and impellor style pumps that attach to a power drill. How do the various pumps compare. I am looking for whichever will make the job easier for a non-mechanic.

The manual says to unscrew the drain plug and be prepared to handle 20 quarts. I don't think I'll be trying that!
