    Suggestions: Mid-size SUV w/3rd row...

    From a practical standpoint, you are 100% correct. We had a MV (Toyota Previa) when our three kids (and a dog or two) were young and it was perfect. I’ll tell you the younger generation does not want to be seen in a MV...my son’s family with three kids and a dog have a Honda Pilot (2015?) and...

    can i change oil without changing my fram ultra?

    Thanks for sharing, So if I change my oil at 5000 miles, it wouldn’t make sense to waste my money on a 20,000 mile rated filter???

    No Tundra love

    IMO, 1) Strong brand loyalty with owners of each of the Big 3...tend to knock anything other than what they drive 2) Tundra platform is dated...2007, while other manufacturers have had several platforms since 2007 3) Big 3 has many drivetrain choices...leading to better gas mileage and tow...

    I do two 6000-7500 mile oil changes on one filter...I put 20K miles per year, so time wise it works out to approx every 9 months.

    What oil specs really matter?

    Both of my current vehicles simply give a recommended viscosity and must have the API starburst symbol, So I basically buy what is on sale, actually clearance, and go with it.

    Who else notices used GDI oil differences?

    Actually on my 2016 Honda Accord 2.4l GDI I am quite surprised on how clear the oil looks on the dipstick when I change it at 6000 - 7000 miles, relative to other vehicles I have owned over the years. Now my Honda CRV with the 1.5l GDI Turbo...is black and smells terrible, after like 500...

    OP, Is the piece where the clear coat is pealing plastic or metal? I have a plastic front bumper doing the same thing on a 2016. so I can lightly sand the clear off and reapply? Seems like the paint underneath would get scratched???

    Thanks all, great input! Sounds like my Audi experience...great performance, handling, etc but the depreciation and maintenance will kill you. Maybe there are some sort of aftermarket wedges or seat covers with lumbar support available???
