That's a good volume of oil! I still don't understand how they're able to do the free returns thing on used oil?

I don’t always stick with them. Before it was Amsoil for the Duramax. I’d rather do shorter OCI so I find myself ordering whatever they have. It’s not really a money thing at all I just kinda like that it forces me to try other oils. I really like the LiquiMoly. It’s been very solid for me and the packaging is great. The 1L bottles fit perfectly in my slide out drawers and they’re easy to refill and send back.

I don’t know the real numbers but all the oil sent back is resold for secondary uses so maybe they’re basically breaking even.

Is it burning oil, hence the move to R&P?

No, it has 70,000mi, no burning or anything like that. Just decided to try it out because why not haha. Had to order some vr1 online and just threw the vrp in the cart since the jeep needed a change aswell.

I looked for new struts at a local junkyard but every toyota from that generation had broken hood struts. I've seen someone drill a hole through both the inner and outer sections of the support and put a small nail in there to hold up the hood. If that doesn't work, ill just get new ones.

Do I need to start a GoFundMe for you?

2008 Malibu w/ 2.4L Ecotec ~113200mi
OCI:7mo and 2k mi.
Out: M1HM 5W30 and ST9018 wirebacked cotton? media
In: M1 15W50 and a Fram CH9018 I had sitting around
I have another one of those wirebacked cotton filters I think, and 1 or 2 XG9018s still laying around, and I think one wirebacked glass fiber ST9018, since Fram/Champ Labs went under, there's not a whole lot of choices for these now, it does however appear that Delco has went back to using the OEM Hengst filter for the PF457G now when before they were the cheap paper Champs that twist and the only way to get the real Hengst was to buy the entire cap assembly.

Boy curious minds would like to know according to GM and CAFE MPG facts this must drop your MPG into the mid teens!
