That was the plan until a WM clearance corresponded with a Pennzoil MIR. I stashed 4 jugs of PU at $2 per quart, the same as Trop Artic on sale.
I started running longer OCI's just to see how far I could go. Guess it is time to back off and hone in on the sweet spot.
This goes to demonstrate that TBN is not the only deciding factor in oil longevity.
That makes perfect sense! with all the UOA's at least you have a good baseline, so you can rest easy running that honda out to 10k miles and beyond.
