    2022 Subaru Legacy 2.5, 3437mi, factory fill 0W-20

    Thanks, dezlpwr - just saw your most recent UoA. Yeah it's a bummer, the NAPA kit doesn't do fuel dilution, but it sounds like if I keep an eye on TBN that'd give me some idea of if it was happening? I'm probably skipping the UOA on the next OC since I'm on even more telework and 6 months for...

    2022 Subaru Legacy 2.5, 3437mi, factory fill 0W-20

    You're not worried that 15K mi OCI or switching to 5W-30 might cause a headache if there's a warranty claim?

    Probably -- I just posted my Legacy's first oil change UOA, and moly is high there too.

    2022 Subaru Legacy 2.5, 3437mi, factory fill 0W-20

    Yeah, hopefully Si drops on the next change, which will be in 6mo so I guess I'll find out pretty soon! The engine doesn't seem especially noisy but the Legacy has a ton of sound deadening stuff in the engine compartment / cabin. My wife has the 2.0l FB engine in her Impreza and it's pretty...

    Long term disability insurance

    The only appropriate answer is "read your paperwork" / have an attorney read your paperwork. My company covers STD/LTD, and reasonably generously (good bennies). YMMV. Little beats a well-stocked savings account for short-term liquidity while you sort it out though.

    Catastrophic event "shtf"

    I watched an ep of that Doomsday Preppers show. Guys build a bunker with flamethrowers in the stairwell and a periscope. All well and good, but it seems like anyone who wanted to take them out could just choke off their air supply lines / inlets with smoke or more noxious substances. /shrug...

    Oh nice, no-RSP is revoked? Somebody better call whine-1-1, it's going to be a noisy place in here for the next two years (and probably the 4 after that too, at least)!
