This may have been covered before, but I didn't find what I was looking for when I searched. My wife has a new Explorer with about 7,000 miles on it, so it's broke in. I'm thinking of going to a synthetic oil for the alleged reduced friction it provides. This should in turn help the mileage, which is poor for a 6 cylinder IMHO. What I don't know is if the sybnthtics really work and what the change interval is. I've heard 8-10,000 miles vs. 3-5,000 for regular oil. Anyone have any real knowledge on this?

In the early 1950s my father bought an Allis Chalmers B and I used it for all the row crop work with the mangolds and potatoes, rolling and the haymaking on our farm. The farm and the Allis were sold and I have spent a lifetime working on farms throughout the country. I promised myself that one day I would own an Allis. That time event
