I'm waiting on the UOA, hoping to get the results this week. Thanks for all your comments!

Good to know! I think I'll keep what's in the sump and then send it out for analysis when I get home.

I picked up a used camper (https://www.nadaguides.com/RVs/2015/Heartland-RVs/M-285LX/6547069/Specs) and have been towing it with my 2021 F-150 Ecoboost (3.5). Currently I am running Valvoline Advanced 5w-30 with about 6 hours of towing on a fresh change. I'll be towing 8-9 hours each way for a...

2021 Ford F-150 (3.5 eco boost) Valvoline Advanced 5w30 K&N filter as that’s all they had at the time

I’m hoping I can score some online, every time I check it’s out of stock.

I do the same, so far so good.

I can’t seem to find the QS Euro on Walmarts app, is it available for purchase online and I just suck at searching the site?

hmm never thought it could be from the additive, I stopped using it so the next UOA should show a difference then. I initially thought that too but figured I would run a few UOA to see any trend. We love it, ticks all the boxes for us. Even though we had a new transmission under warranty it's...

Thanks, I was thinking of trying ST for my next oil change to save a few dollars. Hoping the results are the same. But then again why mess with something that's working, right?

Used 5 oz of Hy-Per Lube HPZ212 to finish off a bottle, no plans on buying more. The copper is high, but I will run a few more UOA's to determine a trend.

I have a 2019 Ascent and use 0w20 with no issues and no burning in 30k miles. Going to continue for the life of the vehicle. Nothing more to add but I thought I should chime in as another Ascent owner.

PUP 5w30 but I should have ran a euro spec, live and you learn.

Even then we need to define what everyday running is. I had a self contained novi 1500 on my z06 and 5w30 did not hold up well (per UOA) and it was street driven but driven hard. Maybe at least a euro 5w30 not an SN Plus 5w30.
