Personally I prefer Mobil 1 synthetic, but any oil that meets the manufacturer's specs will be adequate. * * * Matt Macchiarolo www.townpeddler.com www.wolverine4wd.org "We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty." -Edward R.

Re: oil and changes
What kind of driving do you do?
If you check in the owners manual, it might mention sooner intervals for 'extreme duty' use. That means short stop and go trips not allowing the engine to fully warm up or heavy duty off roading. If I am doing mostly highway runs, I go longer. That is 'light duty'. Mixed, then 3K is right on.
