Opinion=Reliability this is a owner provided opinion. Popularity there is small cult of truck buyers who consider the Tundra. The Colorado outsells it. But Toyota just produces just enough to meet demand thus the resale value. Even with the substantially smaller and tightly controlled inventory...

Do you comprehend the replacement for DEXRON II is DEXRON VI? https://www.acdelco.com/parts/oils-fluids/gm-oe-dexron-vi-transmission-fluid The UOA's show your viscosity argument has no merit because the actual operating viscosity of DEXRON III and earlier DEXRON fluids are thinner then current...

Originally Posted by Amkeer Nice truck! Slow! Ya right. Mine is 12 years old and is a great truck. I get 16 mpg consistently. The motor is easy to work on when needing to replace plugs, belts, coolant, etc.. A plug change takes about 2 hours if you take your time. They have Iridium plugs which...

Best V8? With the worst MPG and the Tundra is slow. It's so slow it's slower than the GM 5.3 trucks. The interior is a cheap rip off of the previous F150. Don't worry Toyota will make it right soon with a 450HP turbo V6.

Don't beat yourself up for this. It happens. Tomorrow should be a better day. One day it will get better.

This is not dirty oil. This is the same color which comes out at the bulk tanks at work.

Originally Posted by rideahorse I am in the thicker oil crowd. Want to know why. Because I am paying the bill. My Ford Edge has 250,000 miles on 15w-40 diesel oil. Still runs perfect. Would it have done it on 5w-20. Maybe. But I know it did it with my oil. We have a lot of engines that run a lot...

Originally Posted by 4WD I have several quarts of Super Tech SAE HD30 conventional. It's SN Plus and makes specific mention of LSPI mitigation on the back label. IRC a "conventional" oil is better at LSPI prevention over PAO.

Once again the percentage of ester in Redline is not a majority. The numbers show it's primarily a PAO or even a group III. Dave from Redline can not be taken at his word. "Rather than cutting costs by blending into polyalphaolefin base stock for its motor oil, Red Line Oil only uses...

It can't be 40% ester the NOACK and viscosity index values don't match not even close. https://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/4538460/3
