A lot of good points.Turned 129K today on a 2000 K2500 I bought 12/99.Change oil every 3000 miles and have only added oil one time between changes.Had a leaky valve cover.Took it off to clean it up and looked at the rockers.Absolutly no slug or grim.At the first oil change I put in Mobil One 5W30.I'm sold on synthetic oil.Put it in my wife's Suburban and my 2010 F150.And we do have cleaner burning gas now.

Hope everyone in YT land has a safe and Happy Thanksgiving!!!
