I had always figured the extractor would only get "so much" out of the pan. While I've been doing my build though I got a good look at just where the drain plug actually is located in the pan on my AHU. There is no way you could actually drain the pan completely via the plug, the hole on the inside isn't actually at the very bottom of the pan! There would always be about a cup or two of oil sitting in there unless you jacked the front of the car up.
That actually has changed my mind about the extractor. I think it might actually get more out than the drain plug would, at least on the engines with the older steel pan.
