In an engine known to last 500k or more with regular maintainance I think it's overkill. Definitely cool but not needed.

Wonder why they don't list the cost of it? I think by using good quality synthetic oil and comon sence I don't think I need one at this time unless its Free!

It's a tuff site. It costs about 500 smacks. Poke around ... you'll see it.

when you put 40k/year on your truck, you want it to last as long as possible... that's what I was doing BEFORE, I started working where I'm at... now doing 3400/mi a month... JUST to & from work.

We had these on the firetrucks when I was in the fire dept. It was good for something like that cause they sat for days or weeks at a time with all the oil draining into the pain. Then we fired them up andran the snot off 'em when we needed them.
