You got it, Carmine!  Also, the extended (or NO) drain interval cuts down on the amount of used oil introduced to the environment.

You guys all like to work way too hard. I use amsoil full synthetic. SAE 15W-40 Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil -Product Code: AMEQT-EA.
I run it for 15,000 miles(or 1 year which ever is sooner) and change the filter every 5 thousand. Cuts down on labor, increases fuel mileage and cuts down on foreign oil dependence.

Think that is crazy, I ran my 2002 GMC 2500HD duramax for 100K without changing the oil. Just changed filters once per year. Sent in oil analysis every 6 months. Reports said OK to continue using it. Checked out fine untill 100K. Then finally had to change the oil.

I will never send a dime to middle east for oil again. Fuel but never oil. PS, I run 100% biodiesel so I do not send them any for that either.
