Agreed. Oil in any engine that has been run should be changed yearly, no matter how many miles they are supposed to last. Even engines that burn fuel like propane or natural gas still have combustion byproducts that get into the oil and can cause issues over time.Premium synthetic oil does not guarantee the same longevity for all types of vehicles. Using full-synthetic oil on gas-fed and diesel-fed engines will render different results. Compared to gasoline, diesel is less refined and produces more soot and acidic by-products. These contaminants take away from how long full-synthetic oil lasts, even when using premium synthetic oil brands.
And the old mechanical 6.2L and 6.5L are much "dirtier" than the now computer controlled direct injection engines.
You should NEVER go past 12 months on any oil change so unless you are driving 15-20000 miles a year synthetic has no advantage

The price of copper cable has almost doubled as well. What I used to get for $99 is now $185.Prices going up. What.
I was looking at the "ZONE" at batteries prices. Counter help said three price hikes in the last three months. That $124 battery was now $185. OUCH!
Tell me... this isn't true, CAMO
Just Do Not ever put that used diesel crankcase oil into the fueltank. Can't get the soot out.Premium synthetic oil does not guarantee the same longevity for all types of vehicles.
