Do you get to top off any? What are the trips like? Short trips as in less than 5 miles? 10 miles or longer instead?
I'd say it could at least go another month or 1k miles at minimum.
Didn't have to top off oil luckily. Driving in Hawaii is almost considered severe service, considering that were are in the top for worst traffic and most freeway driving is less than 15 miles one way. I also do a lot of in-city errand-hopping so oil might not reach operating temp by the time I completed my errands.
This probably explains TBN depletion the most. Yet, you could still drive this current fill longer. 1-2k or 2 months more and change the oil / post another UOA. If you'd like.
