[QUOTE="Ryan Y, post: 561267, member: 62728"] Just a question, but are different engines just dirtier than others?? Case in point: I bought my truck new, and changed the oil at 2,500 miles and the oil was black. Whether I change it at 3,000 or 5,000 with synthetic it's black. On my wife's 2003 Toyota Rav 4, I change it every 3,000 miles with regular castrol 5/30 and every time I drain the old oil it looks new. It's clean and golden EVERY time. I'm not worried about my truck's used oil being black, that's normal. But I worked at a Gemini Goodyear for a couple years changing oil, doing flushes, etc...and I don't remember changing oil and it being as clean as the toyota's used oil. Hmmm.... makes me happy every time I change it though.... [/QUOTE]
