wow ill def check it out i run 5k mile increments as i grew up on dino and well all oil breaks down alot as it heats and after the viscosity is wore out i feel there to much friction now synthetic is better but im to scared to run a oil for extended periods as 25k or even 10k i do go 7500 in my 02 taurus and it has 140k on it and it runs really great but it only get driven around town and 50 miles a week usually....my wife works 10 minutes from here and she drives it...but not with a vehicle thats driven alot like my truck it needs oil changes about every 3months.,...its just my preference

 

Yeah, I gotcha....

It takes me 7 to 8 months to put 5k on my truck.... I only drive it on the weekends... During the week I drive the Mercury because I work 65 miles from home and the car gets much better gas mileage then the truck (25 vs 17)..... I last serviced the truck 12-20-09 and I have exactly 3144 miles on that oil in just over 6 months so as you can see I don't drive the truck much. I figure I'll hit the 5K and need to service it again sometime around October or November...or Just shy of a year from the last service.

The way I look at it.... it's much more financially feasible to put all the miles on the car....afterall, it was a cheap car @ $10K....

 

right i hear that...ill def look into seeing what amsoil has to offer it cant hurt anything trying it out....

 

You can go to their site and sign up to buy it at "dealer" prices. I set myself up a couple years ago, had a dealer price list, member packet and a bunch of other stuff. No monetary commitment of any kind, or at least was not then.

I really wasn't thinking about re-selling, but at that time had two vehicles, an ATV, a tractor and two boats so I would have bought a bunch even just for myself.

I never made a single order, that was about the time my folks took ill and I never pursued it. There is NO minimum to buy, so you can just buy for yourself when you need it..


Actually, it looks like you can be a "member" for $20 a year and buy at 25% off retail, PLUS there is a NO COST 6 month trial membership:

Or you can setup as a "dealer" with under a $50 commitment and no inventory or minimum order requirements. I believe that is what I was set up as, I wonder if I'm still listed as a dealer?

Yep....I love it...it's really added allot of life to our vehicles over the years and allowed me to put a ton of miles on all our vehicles. We average 200,000 before we get rid of a vehicle.... I put 277,000 on my 1997 Ram 2500 4x4 with the 360 and my 1993 Dually had 304,000 on it when I finally junked it....
I personally attribute the long life to using Amsoil.

Yeah I encourage signing up too if you plan on buying it often.... I've been involved with/Used Amsoil for many years... I don't even remember how or when I originally signed up with them but I had the same idea you did...I just wanted it for personal use at a cheaper price...... With three kids we have 4 vehicles and couple toys as well so I figured it would save us quite a bit having an account with Amsoil.. Retail is high for Amsoil.

It's worked out good...I just order it from the Orlando warehouse when I need it...They ship it to me..... When somebody I know wants it I send them to the Amsoil site so they can order what they need.... everyone ends up happy.....

Yeah, I don't recall ever being told I need to buy any certain amount or anything like that..... I Just get it when I need it... It works out good.... I'm very pleased with them.
