I agree with edyvw Get Michelin

Jetman I think you stumbled into the right Oil for your Denali. Your wear numbers look good, and you've got plenty of TBN left. I like your incremental approach Good Luck

Safety 1st I run my Michelin Defender's down to 50%, which is 6/32'nds and 75k miles. Then I sell them on Craigslist for $275-300

Thanks for the report. It's great to see you trying different weights of Oil. This report is another example of how hard these Turbos are on Oil. Lots of TBN left, but the Oil sheared out of Grade

SupraSteve Since you're not looking for extended drain intervals and are content with 10k kilometer uoa's, I would switch to some different brands of synthetic. These Ecoboost motors are known for shearing Oil out of Grade. Your 2.7L EB was no exception. I'd like to see what Amsoil SS, High...

I've sold takeoffs with 75k on (4) different occasions for $275-$325 in (3) different states on Craigslist. The tires normally have a little <6/32nds of tread depth. Over time I've determined that this is the "sweet spot" for selling used Michelin's. I currently have 342k miles on my current...

Navi I'm currently Testing a 2016 Ford F-150 3.5L Ecoboost for 1 of my Kids. I did a 5k UOA back in February. I felt the oil had a lot left to offer. I should have a 10k UOA in October. If all goes well, I'll step up to a 12.5k UOA

Absolutely I took no offense

I'm giving all the relevant data, and I respect your opinion

I just got back from a Road trip and thought I'd make this Post. For me it's another Ho Hum Observation, but maybe not for others on the Board. I purchased these tires 16 months ago, and they have 40,300 miles on them The tread depth is 9/32nds of an inch. When New, they start at 12/32nds of an...

Great Report! Plenty of TBN left @ 3.4 This engine can easily run a UOA of 15k-18k miles I look fwd to your next report Thanks for sharing

Great Question Why not keep running the Valvoline Advanced 5w-30 for another 16-18 hours of towing. Then do a UOA, and post the results

That's a Great Question ❓ How about try them both Start with 1 and run them to 10-25k oci, then try the other 1 I look fwd to your results

I run that exact size tire on my 2011 Ford Expedition EL King Ranch with 338k miles I'm currently on my 5th set of Michelin Defender's Normally is September -Oct Discount Tire sells the Michelin's with $70 Visa card rebate. Also, under normal driving conditions you won't need the Road Hazard...

In December of 2015 I bought a set of BFG KM2's for my Daughter's 2012 Wrangler. We upgraded to 285/70/17 tires. Those tires got her thru High School College, and now in the working world. Those Tires have been Awesome!
