Check the guy with the highest number of miles in signature and go look for how many used oil analysis he posted. Or my guy who did 400k on bulk (per spec) dino and filters and would not know an used oil analysis if it hit him in the head. A small handful here actually use them to extend OCI's … many it's sport.
Last but not least, some of the most nasty and foolish debates on this website have been over used oil analysis and a few PPM of whatever.
