The drive thru oil change place I take my car to is great. They even check for the proper torque setting on the differential drain bolt for me.

(Engine oil change is the only thing I don't do myself, it's too much hassle to have litres of oil sitting in my garage waiting to be disposed of).

i'm about to hit 15k miles on my car, what should I expect to pay, how long it will take, whats done to my car, and any chance i'll get a loaner car if the maintence work is expected to take some time?

If you read the manual, you'll see that the 15k service is mostly visual inspections. No need to pay for this, as dealers typically charge $100+ or the service. Just do the inspections, change the oil, etc, and not the date and mileage in your manual.
