Wow! 12 pack of Labatt and a Bitburger to finish??? Looks like you had a great day!
That reminds me...I haven't had Bit for a long time...
I noticed that. I’m wanting to run the heavier 10W-40 at the moment, but the extra moly is worth exploring.

198,500 miles. I change oil ideally every 5k miles. This one was a bit closer to 6k. I think 5800 miles because of the work travel.
Runs smooth and doesn’t burn a drop of oil. Does need motor mounts though

Yup. And they switched it back not to long ago away from the US Fram filters back to black Roki filters. I have a bunch of the black roki filters as well but also have a secret stash of the cherry red filters that I've been using.
