[QUOTE="turkeyrun, post: 3931319, member: 27991"] I concur, Okie4570 Successes. Dad never ran anything but Quaker State 30w. He bought a new Chevy pickup in '77. Sold it in '91, when he retired. I dont know the history from after the sale but, still see it driving it around town. I used conventional oil up to '06. Not brand loyal, whatever was on sale, but name brand. Quaker, Penzoil, Castrol, Valvoline, whatever. On new engines, I added Slick50, after break-in. I am running AMSOIL, in my pickup. The truck it replaced had Mobil 1 in it from from after break in to 228k, I had changed to the high mileage formulation at 165k. I changed oil every 15k, with filter change midway. When I got another truck, grandson got the old. He is still driving up, possibly on the same oil. I don't know for sure. AMSOIL is going 25k between changes. I do change the filter around 8k. Am I over spending ? Possibly, but the results are acceptable, to me. Side note, I bought the AMSOIL gun cleaner and gun oil. Cleaned and oiled AR. Next range session, couldn't tell any difference. Final check, done 2 mag dumps. Flawless function, no gummy oil. Expensive? I don't think so. I will continue to use it. Engine oil is like arguing Semi vs revolver, 1911 vs Block, Ford vs Chevy vs Toyota , best caliber for deer, .45 vs 9mm, AR vs AK. Everything has their fan boys and haters. [/QUOTE]
