0-20 Honda full synthetic - All dealership performed.

The oil in the wife’s 2020 Honda Pilot darkens as quickly as any vehicle I’ve ever had. This is the J35 V6 and the oil is black literally after ~500 miles into an oil change. Has been this way from the start. It’s just interesting to me the difference in engines in this regard. My 21 Tundra’s...

Same here especially if the kids were going. Our family truckster was an 04 Suburban LX with the 5.3 - simply a great American vehicle!

Thanks for the input guys. Reliable performance was a priority with me. Someone asked Double Cab or Crew Max? - my wife said Crew Max so that’s that 😊. I will say I shopped similar trim levels in the other 3 makes - didn’t find a lot of price differences. Hope you all can get a break from the...

Merry Christmas everyone! I’ve ordered a new 2021 Tundra Limited - will take delivery mid January. My 06 Silverado is ~3000 short of 300000 miles and it’s just time to replace it. My question to this group is why all the poor mouthing from truck reviewers? They really don’t like this truck...

Answering your OP question - maybe, but I wouldn't worry too much about what these knuckleheads think (me included). If you enjoy this do it. I'd like to see the after pics too.

ymc226, Good answers here already. If you're just changing oil ramps are the way to go. Whatever you decide if you're getting under your sub make certain it's solid. This is no place to skrimp on equipment. I like heavy steel jackstands and like eljefino like the solidness of 2 x 8's for ramps...

205,000 on my 06 Silverado LT 4.8L. I'd drive it anywhere and do... driving it loaded to the gulf tomorrow(~170 miles), to north Alabama and Nashville next week. Like most in this group I'm pretty vigilant with all fluids and have done or had performed normal maintenance. Engine runs...

I agree with Pop_Rivet, I have a 48" cut Hustler Fastrak SD w/26 hp FX Kawasaki. Great mower but zero turns are just that... Grass mowers in design and function. Pulling trailers, attachments or blowers are best left for equipment made for that purpose. Dealer availability should be considered...

02 Maxima. What they said. ^^^

Scripture. Just finished "Mere Christianity " by C.S. Lewis on Audible driving to and from work. Great way to pass the miles.

Where are you buying 4 qt jugs of M1 ?

Thanks guys, the oil level was probably about .5 qt down but I stopped when I noticed the stupid thing I was doing. Went ahead and cranked it, took it to a buddy's shop had em change oil& filter. It had about 3,000 mi on that fill so it could have been worse. SuperDave456 , I looked at the...

Guys I need an opinion. My daughters volvo needed a little top off oil and as I was pouring I noticed it looked a little off color. A few months ago had filled an empty jug of M-1 5-30 with some old transmission fluid out of my truck. I had kept the jug, it had some mileages written on it and I...

Harbor freight has a low profile 3ton Pittsburgh floor jack for $94. I've had pretty good luck with Pittsburgh tools. You won't regret spending a little more for a higher load rated lift and a little more quality. The $30 lift will probably do what you have in mind and I get that your not laying...

Thumbs up on the drain and fill plan but I'd use Honda fluids DW-1 I think. It's a not too frequent service and can't see any real cost or performance advantage to using anything else. My .02 - Good luck.

Tuff day, thats always a hard call even though you know its what you had to do. Our Great Dane's ok now but she's getting older and slower... not looking forward to that day either. My condolences.

Great answer. Life is short ! May God bless you in your fight with cancer.

I change my own oil also, but no problems here with an occasional OC at Walmart. Pricing can't be beat & 2-3 of the guys have been there several years, they know me and are always conscientious about what they do. Same with tires. If bought online do the install at Walmart w/lifetime rotation...
