Whats too cold for 15w-40?

[Doug Hillary]

Hi,
427Z06- my, you sure know how to be nice but then I suppose your stated location says it all

I just thought that my post may have been helpful to the original poster - it was obviuosly a waste of time - at least in your eyes

No, I am not "the only kid on the block" but having done my training and spent my life working in the Automotive & Transport Industries I thought I may have learned one or two things

Perhaps that is why I have my own business (last almost 20years) and succcessfully practice as a Technical consultant to and in these Industries, the Oil Industry and to State and Federal Government Bodies
I will tell ExxonMobil-Esso (15years), Chevron Caltex(4 years), Castrol (15years),IVECO, MTU-Detroit Diesel-Mercedes Benz, Freightliner, VW, ThermoKing, Kubota and all my other Customers that it was all wasted and to disregard all that I have implemented for/with them over the last several decades
I will accellerate the sale of my Interstate Trucking business too - at 66 it is easier to retire
I will also withdraw my Publications from sale and cancel all orders help by the Publishers

This will help to ensure that I am not the only kid with a football and help me to resist contributing to this Board again. I'll take my football and run - out to the Great Barrier Reef here where I live and just enjoy life!!!

You see I am still learning - are you??

Thank you

Doug

I apologize if my sense of humor offends you. However, unless I'm told by a substantial number of BITOG members (or the Boss himself) that they find it offensive, I'm going to keep it as a reminder that there are a certain number of people who will always commit the logical fallacy of "Ad hominem" when debating a topic. Even yours truly.

On the contrary, I thought your post was very informative. Although, I have to admit that I'm kinda' partial, since it did support my position.

I never stated you were unexperienced, uneducated, or lacking in virtue. However, just because you don't know a person, or their credentials, I would think it wise not to assume that no one else has any either.

I find that truly sad. I've always enjoyed your posts.

I believe that if you knew me better, you would conclude the answer to that question is an
unqualified yes. However, given the above, I guess you will never know.

Enjoy your retirement.

I've read the whole thread and what you're saying has no relevance to the original posters question.

If you were trying to get into a ******* contest with one(heyjay) and then two(doug hillary) experienced HD operators and try to impart your wisdom with '

and

, well done. you have succeeded spectacularly.

A lot of good advice from our posters that endure extreme cold temps. I think the thread has run it's course, so time to lock it to keep everyone friendly.
