My brother's gasoline-powered truck blewup at 100,000 miles. He was towing a camper and driving from PA to North Dakota, doing about 65 he said, when the engine made a loud bang and died. He then spent $5000 buying a new engine.
I keep asking him if he did anything "wrong" and he says not. The only possibility I can think of is: He was using the overdrive gear. Could that blow the engine?
Now he has a new truck: diesel.
He changes oil every 6 month (approximately 2000 miles).
I told him that's overkill but now he's scared.
