It's ok, I understand...but my old high compression (10.5:1) BB Chevy didn't
use any oil...not even since day one. ;)

It's a high compression 4 cylinder engine. I haven't put a dollar into it
since I bought it (besides normal maint.) Don't get me wrong, I like my
Dak but if I had to place trust in a vehicle to drive the family across the
country I wouldn't be riding in a Dodge. Look at the problems you see in
this mailing list ! I belong to one for my Toyota and about the only
things you see in there is complaints about location of cup holders.

Bye,
Ray
