Oil Analysis

[RamFan]

While I may have commented in this thread before.....I guarandamntee it, none of you will still be owning this truck past 100k miles. And Ill guarantee that even at 100k miles with 5-6k mile oil change intervals....with all your oil analysis obsessions... you will see zero appreciable differences between quality synthetic and Amsoil.

But you boys play and act like you are keeping these long term and that the cost difference is worth it.

Meanwhile...Ill save my money, have my oil changed every 5k(first was at 1k) and laugh at the nonsense.

Carry on

I don’t know if that’s a good bet on your part Chris. The vehicle I replaced with my RHO was a 2014 Ram Sport with 115,000 miles on it. Just sayin’….. Having said that, I run PUP and do 5,000 mile intervals…well not the first 3 oil changes…but I will once I hit 5,000 on the ole odometer!

Play the odds and I’ll play mine. Let’s lay the cards down at that point. Proper synthetic vs overpriced oil. I won’t lose.

In fact let’s make an open wager publicly.

Never seen a true race car win a season with Amsoil.

Ha ha. I was betting on whether I’ll still own the truck at the 100,000 mile mark. I don’t run Amsoil. I honestly think Pennzoil Ultra Platinum is just as good if not better than Amsoil.

Agreed. I probably misread your post.

Sorry, had to repost. Oil analysis as another data point for my first 3 oil changes. 500, 1377, and 3046 miles. Saved as a jpg now to redact my address and hopefully make it easy to click on. You can see the obvious reduction in break in metals/materials. Just a data point for those of us that look at this type of stuff.

Ugh...I changed my oil and forgot to pull a sample.

this is my 3rd change.
800
3400
8400

I see PUP shearing down a smidge, but nothing to clutch pearls over.

I've seen 5k UOA's that have similar shear...that is..to just below a 40 weight.



and I'll repeat myself....most oils are the same at 5k intervals.



and...for the love of God...can y'all order the TBN with y'alls UAO's?


and...I'll be over here waiting on an Amsoil boy to post a UOA.
