I never thought there was debate on the subject, but super impressive to see BITOG keeping things real with five pages and counting of commentary on this While I'm typically quick to insist on proper terms, I feel that this is a pretty harmless one because I cannot envision a situation where...

I have a 2017 Fusion Sport. The AWD seems to work great to me, I've driven it in rain and snow.

Polaris are very good. As already stated, the belts hold up very well unless you ignore the operating instructions. I don't know about the current day Mule. I did go through a maintenance course for the generally reviled military variant of the Teryx some years back, though. If the Mule has any...

They had the "Truck and SUV" label years ago, they may have put it on hiatus for a bit. I actually have some "Turbo Diesel Truck" 5W40 on my shelf currently. Marketing is comical sometimes.

I used to do some long intervals (mileage and time) on the L76 in my G8 that were backed by decent UOA numbers. In that application there was an 8.8 quart sump, which surely helped. UOA result

Five Guys is great, maybe the best, for a fast food burger. For a burger and beer sit down chain, I like Bad Daddy's. Far superior to Red Robin for my taste

Good quality dampers are rewarding every single time the vehicle moves. Bilstein all the way.

I do not like it when people come to work sick. It is inconsiderate.

Yamaha oil filter. Rotella. Not really joking, though. You could use a thousand different oils that will work just fine, Rotella is as good a choice as any. *given that it is available in the correct grade for your application

I'm consistently amazed at how long late model vehicles last compared to the vehicles that I grew up with. I cannot believe that durability has been by luck or accident. It must be the effect of testing and refining design and manufacturing.

I believe that he OP was looking at the better stability/shelf life of E0, more than the incidental octane rating of the E0 that is available to him.

Love the echo chamber effect whenever someone posts about K&N OIL filters here I've used the oil filters on one of my engines, not because I perceived them as an "upgrade", but because it was convenient and available. Never had a problem.

I'd run the dog out of it under load for a couple hours and change the oil. Easy day.

Very cool! Thanks for taking the time to share this!
