    In a perfect world: An after treatment system would be illegal. Definitely wrong to adhere a working man to throw so much money in a faulty system.

    Changing the oil at 50,000+ miles wouldn’t have anything to do with it?

    I was being sarcastic. I think that those long oil change intervals do more harm to an engine than idling does.

    Ok and the fact that those motors aren't as reliable as the 60 series. Just about any neglect with decreased the lifespan.
