Thanks O.C.
I just wanted to see what others' experience with the 2.5 was.
I wonder if Bill ------ is always this rude with people in various threads.
Oh well. He's a bit old for playing games like that.
Thanks again man.
P.S. I'm on the Mobil 1 ( 10w-30 every 5K routine).

I just wanted to see what others' experience with the 2.5 was.
I wonder if Bill ------ is always this rude with people in various threads.

Thanks again man.
P.S. I'm on the Mobil 1 ( 10w-30 every 5K routine).
