I've been running 10000 mile intervals since discovering amsoil 15 years ago or so
Thanks BITOG!

Nice man. I follow the MM in my Honda (usually around 7500 miles) and in the Saturn I typically go around 6K miles.

How long will it take before you do 10K OCI?
I have no plans too. I do crazy short trips, I'm at 4200-4300 miles now and the MM is under 30%, probably around 28%.

I know. 10K OCI is not for everyone. I'm in the same boat. I do 2-3K miles a year and just change my oil annually.
I agree. I was a dedicated 5k changer (the severe service interval per Honda; 10k normal. I don't have the MM.) until I found BITOG, and was saved, Hallalujah!, saved from the dark dark abyss of ignorance and sinful waste of that most precious of precious commodities, oil! Mmmmm....oil. Hallalujah! And praise BITOG.
Oh, sorry, I blacked out there.
But yes, since finding BITOG I've slowly extruded my OCI's and am 1200 miles away from my first 10k run. I'll post a UOA following the drain.
Good on you, Greg!

Actually if I did change it with regular conventional oil every 3k it would be the exact same. $14 times 2 for conventional. And Pennzoil Ultra is $28 every 6k. And I have 50/50 town highway driving. And I drive it a bit hard so that is better.

Looking forward to seeing that UOA!
