I know a guy that recomends PowerStop rotors and pads. Reported it was a noticeable upgrade and well worth it on the old Dodges. 3rd gen brakes are a massive improvement. Went from a 12.6" rotor to 14" on the front. A lot more pad as well.

Going off the notes, I wouldn't push that to 11k. Per mile your aluminum is trending up potassium is staying the same, iron is doing better. Rings and bearings look good. Interesting report, Thanks for posting.

My 40v 20 or 21" push mower from Ryobi is a janky piece of plastic(this is the 300$ model).......and we have enjoyed the lack of noise and smell for 3 years. Electric is great if it fits your needs. I bet you will like the EGO.

I tried Whataburger in September, place south of Houston. Better than INO in every way. I think its great places are upping the standards on food quality.

Tillamook used to brag about the simple 4 ingredients( cream milk sugar vanilla).....now its got a list of junk mixed in. I haven't found heavy cream at the big stores that doest include .5% of junk I dont want.

I've seen 2 of those chevy/gmc on the ground from suspension failure this year. They stopped doing safety inspection here 5 years back, tow companies have benefited

Do it. I erased my post yesterday saying the same thing. I always want to see a different grade tested. If you had 20w50 in it, I would wonder the difference 15w40 would make. Thanks for posting the report.

Surprisingly good numbers. I rarely think people should extend the run(usually the opposite). I would hit 7k next time.

You shouldn't need that additive when you're already using a premium fluid. Interesting test. Does it act any different than the straight d6 you had before?

I like the thicker fluids. A synthetic dex3(mobil1,amsoil...) will probably have more shift feel that atf4. tes295/668 would be great choices also. All of those are amongst THE BEST for a 727.

Many performance builders recommend dex3 in 47 and 48re's, the overdrive/lockup version of a 727. Pretty sure my 95 Dodge dipstick says dex3 on it.

Its a good thing you changed it. I would send another sample after 4-5k miles.

Atf+4 is a good synthetic(semi?) With a 7.x cst. Maxlife starts at 5.9cst and is rated for a cvt, two strikes against it in my book.

I would rather not, especially if you are going for extended oil change intervals. Saying that, I do it often topping off my old Dodge.

I would rather run all terrain all the time.
