42 years and counting doing 10K OCIs. Never a problem.

And that works for you which is good thing. Your cars probably see normal usage.

I tow heavy, the Malibu is a Direct injected 2.0 Turbo. The WS6, has heads, cam and the accelerator is basically an on and off switch.
The Caprice goes under the knife this weekend for its upgraded cam. I have some extra cash in these cars. I don't mind the shorter OCI.
