I'm about 400 miles from an oil change but I'm making the switch to royal purple. Of course with an oils change means fuel system cleaning and seafoam treatment are coming soon as well.

Replaced the stock six-disc radio with this. I was really sick of not having Bluetooth. Even got it working with the steering wheel controls. The sound quality improvement is very impressive.

Fixed it with some 6qts of High mileage Valvoline 5w 30 and a quart of lucas

Tick is almost silent now, and doesnt vibrate idling. **** that water koolaid in that death jug

Hot Idle Oil Pressure on MC 5w20

Hot Idle Oil Pressure on Valvoline 5w30 + Lucas Oil stabilizer

I think i know what i will be sticking with...

Wonder now if this is what's wrong with mine. I went to 5w20 for the winter and that's when it started idling like crap or at least it got worse

125,000 with Quaker State in this truck. Used it in every other truck I've ever owned. Father has used it his entire life. I always add the STP. Change it every 2500-3000 mi. Do you think I'll have a problem? Lol
