It's not heaven . . . it's Iowa!
I change my own oil. Ooooh, $22.60/yr!!! Wow, screw the lottery, you don't need it. :lol:
Haha, gotcha :thumbs:

...

Still, it's money saved, it's a win-win in my eyes.

Yes, but if you wisely invest the $22.60 every year, when he retires in 40 years he'll have over $1,000! :thumbs:

In the year 2049, that'll probably buy him a double cheeseburger. Maybe 2. :lol:

Haha, gotcha :thumbs:. You don't hear of too many conventional-oil-changes doing an analysis, I'd be interested what the results would be on your 3k-mile-oil-change. Just to compare the results, I think that would be interesting.

Remember, there is more to it than just the oil properties. What about contaminants (carbon, fuel impurities, etc)? I prefer to flush away those contaminants every 3K miles personally. Yes, the filter does trap some of them, but for 1yr/10K miles?

In our climate, we get a lot of condensation, especially in the winter-time.

To each their own, but I prefer CLEAN oil in my engine, regardless of how well it retains it's properties.
