Yep, for sure. Although someday when I'm retired and no longer subject to random drug testing, I might change my mind.

On another note... I recall from our previous conversation that you also drive Cascadias...

Here's a question that's got me overthinking the oil pressure gauge to begin with: I just went from regular to semi synthetic 10w30 on my truck. Now my oil pressure at normal cruise of 65 or so is sitting lower than before, at around 38-40. It seems uncomfortably low, especially with brand new fresh oil?

Mine is between 40 and 50 at cruising speed engine normal temp.

145K miles on engine.
