    I have a weird feeling when I change oil past 3k. Whether its synthetic or not. But @Lots2Learn58 assured me that its OK. I used to change synthetic at 3k, but Im slowly adjusting to 5k

    I am fine with 5k, but I would never go much over that. To see people go 10 or even 15k, just cause the manufacturer says its good to go that long, would scare the crap out of me. No way.

    I think someone told me that Mercedes recommends 1 time per year, on the new vehicles. Thats just insane!

    I will probably stick to synthetic at 5K's also. Might as well.

    A time period recommendation is just dumb, people's annual mileage varies by crazy amounts depending on how much that person drives.

    Synthetic is supposed to be good for 10K, but I'm not sure if I'd do that for my own vehicle. 7500 is probably a good interval for synthetic though. 15K is nuts

    Bell black canvas universal seat covers on. Not bad for $15 each, just meant to keep my dirty work clothes from messing my seats up too bad. I also put my fire turnout gear on the passenger seat sometimes so should help with that too. Supposed to work with the seat airbags but hopefully I'll never have to test them out :)

    You do, my coworker's 93.

    Also, took your advice, just received the 10 pack of OEM oil filters off Amazon, and picked up some 5W-30 from Costco for cheap. :thumbsup:

    I love the old broncos.
    Too bad the ebay seller that was selling the 10 packs of filters stopped giving the TW discount. I picked up a case from him not long before he stopped, so that will last me a while.

    I think dealers will give you a discount if you buy a case of 10.

    No leak from Fumoto so far and dipstick level was good.

    Also reset TPMS for four tires on ground. Flashing TPMS light turned on after reset but turned off after some driving.

    Just a proof of concept for now to see if it fits. I did have to cut off my old, now unused, exhaust hanger in order to fit it.

    If I get the WR, it will only fit with tailgate down and would obviously need to take swingout off for that. Options...

    Spoiler alert, still have the truck. This "build page" is :bananadead: Not much planned besides some better fog lights and ST Maxx's once these KM2's are toast

    I did use my Maxtraxx's to get a little Altima out of a snow drift during our last "storm"
