Post your latest oil change

2002 Chevy Prizm 69,250 miles..2 QT's YB and 2 QT's PP...w/PureOne Filter..used approx 12 oz in 2500 miles 6 months since last oil change.

1997 Geo Prizm..4 QT's NAPA FULL SYN..Fram ToughGuard Filter used approx 20 oz in 3000 miles in 6 months since last oil change


Both oil changes cost me about 10.00 total
 
I just did an oil change on my wife's 2000 Civic today. It has 105k on it and I switched from GTX 5w20 over to Schaeffer Supreme 7000 blend, in 5w30. It is the SL formula, I bought this stuff way back around 2002 or 2003 and started using it in my 95 Firebird Formula but then I switched over to GC and kind of forgot about this stash of oil I had. I had 18 quarts of it just sitting there, so I figured I'd use it in the Civic (which calls for an SJ oil, so SL is one step newer anyhow) I also used up an old AC Delco oil filter that I had sitting in my basement since probably the same time too, so I'm using up old stock for sure! It's always nice to do kind of a "free" oil change. :)
 
2002 Ranger 3.0
Pennzoil 5W20
Motorcraft FL400S

I was going to use Motorcraft 5W20, but when I took the top off the jug the foil seal was broken. The oil looked new, but I took it back. I checked the one other 5 qt jug they had, and it's seal was open too. So Pennzoil it was...

I'll probably change this out next fall. Due to weepy valve stem seals, I always have to add 1/2 qt here, 1/2 qt there, so I may never have to actually "change" the oil. Just the filter. ha.

1999 F250, 5.4 Triton
We towed the travel trailer to storage, so the truck will set idle for most of the winter, with only occasional runs. 4.5k on RTS and a Stratopore.
Switched to M1 15-50 and an FL820s. Figured what the heck, Frank runs it exclusively, it gets good marks here, and I have a boat load of the red cap from K-Mart clearance. The truck has 137k on it now with an average of about 4k a year towing the TT.
