With oil testing I was at 12,500 OCI with our 2001 Ram 2500 5.9 CTD, and told I could easily go further. This was with just Dino oil. The 2016 is 15k easily.

I ran 10k on my 12V and could have gone much further with the AMZ/OIL but at the time I was buying it by the 55 gallon drum for my self, family and friends and it was "CHEAP" and 10k was a easy number to remember to change the oil.
My friend last year ran 22k on his 13 and Blackstone said to go 24k next time. This is running the Signature series 15-40 AMZ/OIL and either a Donaldson or AMZ/OIL filter don't remember.
I have gone to once a year on my 15 but when I was using it year round I did the 15k and Blackstone always said once warranty was up to go longer.

But hey let's not forget Ford has nice mirrors and the oil filter is easier to change. ![[emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/wink.gif "wink")

I’m still getting used to the mirrors on my 23……
The cameras it has are WAY better than any mirror anyway.

Well my Son how bout I school you on the original name. Notice the "S" looks like a "Z" on current AMS/OIL products that is because PenzOil felt threatened with this up and coming company and sued "AMZ/OIL".
So guess who had deeper pockets.
My Dad was the original AMZ/OIL distributor in WA. We started using AMZ/OIL in the mid 70's and have thru today.
For your viewing pleasure the original AMZ/OIL oil can.

Well, gramps….I’m well aware of that, but thanks for the history lesson.
When you go to Napa for a set of main bearings and brake shoes, do you ask for a set of babbits and brake linings?
And the S looking like a Z is a stretch but…

Didn't Pennzoil threaten to sue Amzoil and forced this change from Amzoil to Amsoil?

That’s what the resident expert said above.
