Drove my truck to church yesterday cause my wife couldn’t get ready on time.[don’t get me started on that]and I noticed that the oil life remaining was down to 25%. Just the week before it had been in the 40% range. Now I did make a 350 mile trip pulling an empty trailer but didn’t think it would make that much of a difference. So I changed it and where I keep my records I have only gone 3,100 miles on that oil change I did in Dec.. I almost always get between 6,000 and 7,000 miles by the indicator between changes. We had a very harsh winter like everybody else. Would that effect oil life? The other factor was I noticed while hauling my H Saturday the truck didn’t seem to have the same zip I am used too. So while doing the oil change I looked that the air filter life indicator and it was in the green. But I thought what the heck I will pull it out and look at it. It was the dirtiest air filter I have ever seen. When I tapped on it about a cup of what looked like quick Crete fell out of it. {we live on a gravel road}.Man the truck runs like a bat of Joplin now. What a difference. Would the plugged air filter affect oil life? Do any of you guys put any stock in these indicators? By the way the truck is a 2008 duramax. Thanks, Paul

But no matter how good or bad auctions may be, we always seem to stay until the item we've come for or are interested in is on the block. I've been to some auctions near and far. I think the furthest has been the Two Cylinder 7 in the Amana Colonies last year. Lots of stuff, lots of people. I've also atten
