Synthetic is better for your engine no matter how you look at it....just may
not be as good for your pocketbook.

Oh, I see how you are... Junk the wife's car with all the short

Thanks for yours and everyone else's advice on this subject of Oil Changes.
You all will be happy to know that I got the oil changed at my dealership
today. (Weird, how truck seems to run better after, must be my head.)
OK, new question. While at the dealership I noticed an ad for synthetic
oil.
Now that I am the Kill Your Engine With Short Trips QUEEN. Would the more
expensive synthetic be better for my truck OR would I just be wasting my
money because on average I only get about 1200 miles on my current oil
before
my next oil change is due.......Let the debating begin!!!!
