Being they have access to hundreds of trucks and equipment like I do. Their input would seem worthy. Not everyone lives in a small little world. Like it appears you do. -
I've got just under 3k on my LZ0 and it's hard to tell what it's doing because I changed the oil at 500, 1500, and getting ready to do it again. The next interval will span 2k miles before probably going to a max of 3500 -- but using the recommended 0w20. Some superstition, and some data, I don't want to do longer intervals for the real or perceived possibility of the oil losing viscosity with longer use, starting from only 20 weight oil. I use Mobil 1 ESPx2. In the last 1500 miles most of it has been higher speed, highway driving 70mph+, and only a little towing. I topped off the oil at about 2750 miles, adding about 1/8 quart to put the level back on full. IMO, nothing to worry about. There's still a possibility a defective thrust bearing could take out the whole engine before 10k or so. That's a lovely thought to ponder, but if it happens, I'll get the engine replaced and send the truck down the road and find something else. -
This might be the beginning of the end. My chips are on 6 months until prices are within reason of pre-war levels, maybe 8-10 because stockpiles need to be replenished for national security. Sad that we're two steps backwards from where we started.

31000 miles. was not recalled. Did change oil to 0 W40 after 1st change. 5 oil changes and NO indication of any trouble. No noise, vibration, nothing. Dropped off at dealer yesterday with copies of all my oil changes. Waiting to see what happens.
