Bubba, I think with the newer oils that are out there now I think everyone is right, all these years with all the new vehicles I've had and following their directions none of them have used oil or had a problem ie; I bought a new F-150 4.6L in 1996 they told me to drive at all speeds for the first 1000miles and I did including 100mph to set the computer then they would change the oil then drive as I would normally do and that was 120,000 miles ago and it doesn't use a drop of oil between oil changes. I bought a new Harley in 2002 and they said to drive the first 800miles not to exceed 55mph and never go over 3000rpm after that it was ok. That was 20,000miles ago and it doesn't use a drop of oil between changes. I rebuilt a 1979 chevy 4X4 400ci and immediately took it to the street and smoked the tires on it and at 100,000 does not use a drop of oil between changes.You tell me.
