I've got 79L of green GC, but I'm moving to longer OCIs on all my cars, just to preserve this stash even longer! I'm even considering switching my dad's Volvo XC70 over to gold GC, that way I don't need to keep supplying him with green GC like I have been doing all along. Then the 79L will last much much longer (since he does 3 to 4 oil changes per year-at 7500 miles each)

Starting to get a little greedy huh?

Dad's doing a lot of driving, Patman.

Yep, him and I do about the same amount of mileage per year, roughly 25k.

Yes, a crippling afliction. You got take it one OCI at a time. With help and enough support, you too can break the bonds of the 3m/3k prison.

---

I wish I could do even 3k. If I leave oil in my car for more the 1500mi, it comes out looking like roofing tar.

Just when I thought I had conquered the 3k mile OCI on my wife's Expedition, I went on an oil-buying-binge. Now I'm off the wagon

& back to 3k mile OCI's on the Expy. If I go any longer, I'll never get rid of all this oil.

As always, you can give some away to other BITOGers who can put it to good use.

I thought we were generous with our "stashes" of oil, well maybe with the exception of the Green GC.

Well, you've got a puzzle that defies solution.

Gosh I'd love to lock down your engine's issues.

Perhaps we can view you as being in a "maximum security" environment ..where 3m/3k would seem like a pardon.

Patman - You seem to have the same reaction to your green GC stash as my 3 yr old has with his green cash stash... He wants to use his $5 to buy a happy meal at MCDs and then conveniently leaves his wallet in his carseat...

I can hear the conversation with your Dad, "Here is this lovely Castrol product that is new and improved, way better than that green stuff..."

I bought 8 more L of green GC this weekend, so I can still share it with my dear ole dad now.
