    I put Rotella in truck 2 when he flew home and I took his truck to wrench for PM. Just because it was on sale that week, about $12 gallon.

    They used Chevron in the mixers. And nothing got worked harder than those mixers.

    Mobile, Chevron, or Shell are all good.

    The oil samples are self evident of that. Always use Fleetgaurd filters. The Detroits use Lubrifiner, that's their OEM manufacturer.

    I almost bought Chevron this time cause it was on sale. But somebody had bought it all but 1 gallon.
    Mobile is usually $12.50 gallon at Wamart. About $13 at Freightliner, and they have a big pyramid of it at Freightliner lol.

    Huge mudslides on the 70 at MP45 closed the road in both directions for quite awhile. Also closed the westbound 70 coming into Glenwood.

    Yup. I felt guilty. I can’t help it.

    Drop and hook at FedEx near Boulder. Had 4 MT’s to choose from. I feel like I got the whole dealio done in about 15min. I guess I could look at my QC...

    I haven’t drank a mudslide in a long long time. That’s going on my bucket list too

    The waitress were nice. The food was hot. I’m ready for a nap. Perfect on this day...if I have to spend the night I now go to Johnson’s corner. I like being out in the country.

    I love Valvoline Blue. The fact that an engine manufacturer will approve an oil for continuous use in their engines says something to me.

    My new truck has an oil change due in about 5k mi. Even if I have to pay for the oil, Im switching to it.

    Speaking of, who do y'all like to use for oil samples?
