I last changed my oil the end of '13. Amsoil Signature Series can run up to 25k miles, depending. Since I've only got about 7k and one fresh quart added, I decided to run it through the summer. OLM has been at zero for quite a while now. I'll be sending out the oil to Blackstone Labs whenever I get to the oil change.

 

They always say you should change it every YEAR regardless of mileage, but I've never bought that. Stuff is too expensive to pitch every year with only 5k miles on it. I'll take my chances. Aside from the oil burners, the rest of the engine seems to be the one thing GM got right so far this century.

Smashed my 2013 up last night a moose ran out in front of me I hit the brakes ture caught the ditch and it sucjed me in and took out a barb wire fence and fence post and olowed down a metle post my Road armor did its job no dings or dents on my truck but its got nastys scratches its going in on Tuesday for an insurance appraisal. I'm starting to think we'll the trucks almost paid off I've had lit of fun in it iv beat on it from the day it was born and its bin good to me considering the way I treat it so think I might not buy a new truck and might spend some money on this one. While the insurance company is going to pay to repaint half the truck I'm thinking of getting them to color match my Road Armor bumper and since my one mirror is a victim I'm thinking HD mirrors. I'll post pics of damage tomorrow.

Well what I did with my truck today was traded it, I traded it on a 2015 Ram 1500 Laramie. I'll miss it but I'm happy with my new truck and now I have to start customizing this one.

Traded my truck yesterday, long story short the wife travels better laying down. Bought a Hyundai Santa Fe, got a banging deal. Still have my custom 92 Chevy so I'll be around.

How is that 8 speed? I should have drove one before just buying my truck, not sure why I didn't

I like it so far, have a long day of driving the wife around for work today so I'll get some good drive time in and get to master the navigation too.

As in she reclines the seat while you drive?

 

 

That's incredibly dangerous. Please don't tell me she's one of those feet on the dash types too.

Sorry, I realize I sound like an ass but I'd never let someone I cared about sit like that in a vehicle I am in control of.

Man, people dumping their Chevys like yesterday's street taco.

I wouldn't say dumping it's not that I hated my truck I actually loved it just didn't care for certain things but I thought about upgrading and I decided to go with the dodge. I like the Chevy and will never bad mouth it or run it down like it's junk I just felt like the dodge was better for me at this time and it's likely that I will own another Chevy down the road.

Do to a bad surgeon, she has had numerous repair surgeons in the last 5 years, nerve entrapment hernias etc. The results she can't sit for more than an hour even on extra cushions. She would lay out on the back seat on an assortment of cushions. Two days ago while taking her genesis in for service we notice a Santa Fe in the show room marked down and took it for a ride, all the seats fold down enough to fit a mattress. We got home and in the mail was a flyer for 0-70 months. I went back and and told them if they do both id buy it. I walk across the lot to the gmc side ( same dealer) and drove an Acadia no comparison price and features. So Hyundai number 4, never had a problem with any of them. Oh.. yes when riding up front she does put feet on dash. We're from the no helmet when riding a bike generation, the wild and crazy not afraid to take some chances and live life with little fear. lol

Reminded me of this from the one and only Star Trek comedy movie, where they traveled back to the 80s and sre trying to blend in.

 

 

 

If you haven't seen it but remember the 80s or early 90s, it's a hilarious movie.
