For those that would like to exceed the 6,000-mile change interval, there is a way that's even approved by SRT. Simply switch your odometer to read in kilometers instead, and it'll buy you an extra 213.7 miles per change interval since now you won't have to change until at 10,000 kilometers. If...

Ever since I started using Amsoil the air filter doesn't get dirty anymore, the wiper blades don't need to be replaced, and I haven't had a single flat tire. Amsoil is good stuff. I may even start using it in the vehicle, not just drinking it.

Well, she did drive a 4-door. How happy could she possibly be?

That is key. People waste a lot of fuel (and brake pads) with their driving style. I may not ever use cruise control, but might just be able to beat people that do.

That would make for a very quiet trip if I were the passenger. Well, after having expressed what I think should've been done (i.e. PASS, DAMN IT!!!)

My girlfriend always beats my mileage. Not because she drives slowly, but I drive even faster. I'm guessing that she keeps it under a 100, and know that she passes much less aggressively than I do, so when I get 22 mpg on a good tank in my 'Cat, her log book has multiple 24+ entries...and...

There's been a lot of talk on this subject on the old forum, but I don't remember ever reading that anyone got in trouble for exceeding the time limit. I'd be more concerned with what the dealer poured into your engine, as they apparently don't always get it right. In my case. my dealer would...

I wouldn't be surprised if Dodge is more concerned with those who drive five miles to work, sedately. Then maybe to a car show eight miles away on weekends. Plus, a cold start every now and then to rev it up for friends to hear when they come and visit. And they must have nightmares about those...

I can't add 8,000 miles per year to anything, let alone 35,000. Heck, my '17 3500 just broke 19,000 and it generally only goes on 900 to 2,800 mile trips. Took me 18 months to put 1,700 on the Trackhawk, and the '18 Challenger is now at about 4,500. A '14 Ram 1500 had 22,000 on it when I sold...

Sorry, Whatknot, but I don't buy into that bogus 6-month oil change crap. For the Challengers that would basically mean changing the oil again in the spring with zero miles (and starts) on it. Just doesn't make sense to me. Idling? My '17 Ram 3500 diesel has 11 idle hours on it. I hate idling...

I think it'd be best if Magnified gets to decide if he wants to fess up or not.

We can always count on you to try to weasel out of things, Magnified. But it's completely understandable since in your profession your livelihood depends on being good at it. When I do it, it's just for fun. So there.

Yes, it is. It's not a 4-door.

Yeah, I had a feeling it wouldn't be all that simple. But every time I visited England (SW of London) I kept thinking how fun it would be to try driving the Pete there. Of course, I thrive on challenges. Kudos to you for thinking about getting a tractor just to drive! They are fun.

Ah, you of little faith. The Pete is registered and insured as an RV, and the trailer as a "trailer coach", as they called it in California. In other words, no need for any special license. Besides, the trailer is only 13 inches longer than that Sightseer, and is rated to pull 63,000 lbs...

I'm obviously completely out of the loop here. Maybe because I've never watched much TV...even after I finally got one. And it was free.

Not familiar with that one. Is Jimmy's going-four-wheeling truck close enough?

The last time I went (could go) to traffic school, I did a burnout in the parking lot when we were let out for lunch. Still passed.

My RV happens to be for sale. It's left hand drive, though. Not that it really matters. You could run into a lot of stuff without hurting it. And there's room for a small vehicle in the back.
