    Oil change events for charity

    I had no idea it was that cheap. I'm guessing they're using conventional oil at that price point and the cheapest filters. Good info.

    Yeah, that will likely be true. Not my circus, as they say.

    Oil change events for charity

    I'll still be doing a a few free oil changes for family members, friends, neighbors and acquaintances this side of Africa. If enough other people would do exactly the same, there should be no need for free oil change "charities" I'm guessing.

    Oil change events for charity

    Yeah, even though a local church has done this in the past (don't know anybody there; no interest to join), I see too many ways now for this to go south. Thanks for the good ideas and perspectives. This has enlightened me again to certain realities of our current culture. It's a nice idea on...

    VRP 5W-20 single quarts at Amazon

    I use ChatGPT for these kinds of comparisons. You might be amazed at how capable it is at comparing kinematic viscosities and so forth.

    Why not use Valvoline R&P as the "forever oil"?

    Thank you for correcting!. Very interesting.

    Why not use Valvoline R&P as the "forever oil"?

    So it contains ester oils most likely? That's not unique by itself, but for the price point of VRP it is unique.

    2021 Toyota Tundra : First DIY oil change, lessons learned

    I'm having a hard time justifying NOT removing the skid plate since I can't see myself ever having the time, opportunity or desire to do much off roading, let alone off roading where my truck's front end would bottom out on rocks. I mean, I live in Iowa. My 4wd will be used for snow, ice and a...

    2021 Toyota Tundra : First DIY oil change, lessons learned

    2021 Toyota Tundra SR5 4x4 CrewMax (2.5 gen) Put your truck on ramps if you're a stout guy like me. You can probably wiggle under there just enough to get the job done without it, but it'll be more stressful and time consuming. I didn't do this even though I had the rhino ramps at home...and...

    Oil filter swap/exchange

    Compiled a list of oil filter look up and reference sites in case anyone is searching for it or could use it. Maybe this info is already in a sticky. I'm sure there are more sites than this. Oil Filter Lookup / Cross Reference / Reverse Lookup https://www.oilfilter-crossreference.com/...

    Oil filter swap/exchange

    I can do the same over here. I just haven't done it in a while because I've moved a bit. I used to do this for an outreach program. I'll just need to find a new outreach program or start my own. I'm not interested in shipping oil filters across the country. No offense intended.

    Oil filter swap/exchange

    That thought occurred to me, but then the thought of paying to mail them around just kills the thought. The economics of shipping won't be feasible. None of my oil filters are gold plated or collector's items. 🙃 Better just to give away a few free oil changes to local widows, single moms, etc. I...
