The first username I tried was taken so I tried this one jokingly and it worked. My "change oil" message has never actually come on except once when I forgot to reset it. I don't push my intervals out very far on this vehicle. I may go a bit further with this premium blue though.

Unfortunately my Chevy is a 2002 and only tells me when it needs to be changed, doesn't tell me percentage. Is it still easy on the engine with a 4.10 rear cruising at 70-75? I'm genuinely curious about that, it's crossed my mind many times.

I bought a bunch of valvoline premium blue synthetic 5w40 on sale for my 5.3 to use this summer. What is a good conservative oil change interval? 5000? I do mainly highway driving except for when I hit the lake which I tow a light boat on some country roads.

Hmm now I'm wondering if it's the Smitty super s just rebranded or if it's just a cheaper blend. Smitty lists specs for their lubes but I'm not sure if it's actually the super s or not.

Thank you, I appreciate the info!

Who makes tractor supplys traveller gear oil? On the back label it just says distributed by tractor supply. On the bottom of the jug is says SSI. I did a quick search and found a company out of Florida named SSI lubricants who distributes Amalie lubricants also based in Florida. So is traveller...
