    LS1 swap with nitros.

    Same here. Easier to do it at home then hassle of going to the stealership.

    Stock and staying that way
    I changed it at 3,981 miles with this, will let the dealer change it at 10k & 20k, then this will be used to change it every 10k thereafter.

    My dealer only changes it every 10k so I get 2 free, but I have changed it at 5k and will again shortly at 15k.. they rotate the tires every 5k though.

    Exactly! lol I took the time to print out all the records when I sold my Firebird (back then I didn't have a garage to do my oil, it also had quite a few repairs worth noting for reliability). Buyer said "thanks," tossed them in the back seat without a glance, and gave me the cash lol

    Hey serious question, are the filters rated for 10k OCI? Not trying to be funny or anything like that. I just don't know.

    Good grief that is the most expensive clutch/throw out bearing replacement I've ever heard of. At least on any vehicle that costs under 100k

    thats what i thought until i talked to someone in a different thread who said in LA they charged him 3k for the same stuff plus something else but an astronomical amount nonetheless

    I haven't seen those bottles in over 4 years, we used to get them but now its some bulk company for all the oils. For your free oil changes they dont put that in, just factory filter but the oil is whatever they buy cheaper from a bulk company. Not all dealers are shady you got to realize its going to be guys with no experience doing your oil change because a master tech will be doing diag, engine rebuild etc. Been a Toyota Master for a while i've seen my fair of stuff.

    yeah!! much better isn't it. did you get the off road version? i think the automatic version is cool with traction control and a few other features but i like the diff locker on my stick and my clutch start cancel button.
    With your other truck did you ever have any front end clunking?
    forgive me for getting offtopic...
