I have a 3208 cat in a white that I use 15w-40 shell rotella t in. My daily driver cars I use all synthetic Amsoil 10w-30 that is rated for 25,000 mile oil changes. I run it about 15-20,000 miles between changes and it does really well. I save a lot of time on changing oil even though it is about $4.50 a quart in the 12 quart cases I buy. Also don't have to get rid of as much used oil and the car I use it in will only burn about 1 quart of it in about 15,000 miles. It is a 93 Lincoln Mark 8 with 182,000 miles. I also have a navigator with a 5.4 that I use it in and that will burn a quart every 1500 miles!?? I have a f-350 that I just use super tech 10-30 or 10-40 in from wal mart. Works just fine. Zero radius toro mower gets the good stuff,(amsoil 10w-30) but only gets changed once a year. Hydrostat gets amsoil too. Same oil as the engine but I have kept Mobil one in that because that is what it had from the beginning. Polaris 6x6 gets 10w-40 Amsoil atv oil once a year. Ford tractor (9n) gets any 10w-30 from valvoline or wal mart, depends on the best price! It is pretty healthy and happy on it and only uses a quart a summer of hard brushogging. Farmalls all got kendall 10w40 but it is getting hard to find so dad has been using a lot of that traveler oil from TSC in them and they do great. Hardly ever add oil to a Farmall! Seems like they are always full and clean. I love those tractors. Like I said in a previous post, I think most of the basic oils are all great, some just spend millions on advertising and you pay for it at the store. Motors are either worn out or tight. Motor oil is pretty much motor oil with the exception of the synthetics being able to run much longer without molecular breakdown. You do pay for that in the price though. Later.

Show Coverage: Journey to Ankeny - by Cindy Ladage. We left Illinois on the first day of July and headed north and west for Ankeny, Iowa. Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
