You do know what opinions are right?

I ran nothing but Amsoil in my 2004 Cummins running 25,000 mile oil changes and 10,000 mile filter changes. At around 110K I took it to the Cummins shop next door to the Ram dealer in Maumee, Ohio to have the lifters adjusted. The tech came and asked me how many miles was on the truck. When I told him he said it looks like it is brand new.

Now note that I was running 25,000 mile oil change intervals and according to my oil analysis I could have gone longer. So his idea that it is not worth the price is kinda only true if you are dumping your oil at the 7,500 to 10,000 mile mark.

Lol.... the tech that adjusted your valve lash could not havelooked at the miles on the dashboard, but had to ask you!

I've asked my cousin which brand he and the other diesel techs at the shop run and it was basically the conventional oil that the dealer sold

Yes Troy he did. The service manager pulled my truck into the bay not the Tech. Anyone that thinks Dyno oil is better than full syn is a moron! Or a greedy Tech trying to get someone to change their oil every 3000 miles. So which one his he Troy?

That's hard to believe Don.

I never said which oil is better but I would like to see your statistically significant data to support your claim.

"He" has over >350k miles on his diesel so I would consider his experience more significant than yours
