Do you guys run Amsoil to the full 25,000/1 year? The filter is supposed to be good for the same.

No because if you are using your rig under severe conditions you should do it at 15,000 I also can't make it to 10000 on the XL because of this.

Mostly in-town driving for me so I'll probably change at 15,000 or six months then. I may have it analyzed, too and see what they say. I was told it's around $25 for that.

I think I'll send a sample in at six months and see what they say.

That oil is so good but it goes through hell that is why with proper filter is only way I think 15000 is even possible.

Nearly everyday in winter I start my truck let it run for 20 min then drive a mile to work and then do the same thing after work.

This is so hard on it and sure some days I put on 250 miles but many are like this. Some other days I tow something 6 hours to or from my parents. I just can't see myself ever making it to that crazy high number and feeling good about it.

I'm gonna keep a close eye on it, especially since this will be my first run with any kind of extended drain oil.

I've got zero experience wit superchargers. I would think Amsoil or Royal Purple would be your best options, though. Congrats on the purchase.

A guy here with a Nissan P/u has the dual bypass filter system, uses Signature series, and has gone 85000 so far, lab said keep going on it 5000 miles ago.

Yeah, I've heard their bypass filter works really well. I think I'm going add one in the future. I've had another guy tell me he went over three years on the Signature Series with a bypass.

I ordered mine through a dealer on HTC. I'm not sure if I want to start paying the fee to be able to be a "dealer" and order my own stuff. Once I switch all of our cars over to Amsoil, I might look into it.

I order as a preferred customer or XL is available at Fleet Farm for almost the same price after you calculate shipping into it.
