I kno we touched basis on this already on few times this site but i believe we only spoke on avoiding syntectic oils. i want to kno the driving styles that you guys have become comfortable with and the oil that you use to 1) avoid costlt repairs and 2) give you the flexibility to drive the way you want.

Reason i ask is that i dont say i speed everywhere i got but i hate driving on the highway and there is like 50 cars all cluttered in a small space where as if some1 just speed up and move over and let everyone else pass. Second i sumtimes have a heavy foot but nuffin dangerous just enjoying the power and take off of my trucc and want to kno the best oil period for more peace of mind under the hood right now i brought 6 quarts of MOBIL 1 Extended Performance & Mobil 1 Extended Performance Oil FIlter!!! good choice for my style or way of driving.

Nice choics, I use the same snthetic oil and a K&N Gold filter along with it instead of the Mibil1, though I herd they are almost the same!
I also have a K&N Perf, air filter, thinking about getting either a train horn kit or a CAI, decisions decisions!

I had switched to Mobil 1 for last year that I had my trailblazer. Tahoe is due for first oil change soon and I will also being going with Mobil 1 oil & filter. I trust the local mechanic at the Exxon station more than the dealer. He used 6 or 7 quarts in the trailblazer, not sure what he'll do for the Tahoe.

Thats tight Blizzard, I thin i'm leaning towards the train horn kit now since I want to wait till the BB Tune to get the CAI!

Well do you plan on mounting the compressor?

By the way guys I don't mean to ***** the thread, my Tahoe uses 5 quarts of the Ext. Perf. 15k mile oil with like a pint or two of the STP Oil Additive just to let yall know!

I use Royal Purple synthetic in the Tahoe and I could not be happier. But I use Mobile 1 in the Benz and so far so good. You know its a good oil if thats what Mercedes recommends.

I run K&N CAI, and Royal Purple! :)

Due to the fact that Im lowering the Denali this week and will no longer be using the Air Shocks, I'm going to hook the tiny stock air ride compressor up to a tiny air tank (since the Air Horn doesnt need much)

i couldnt find the royal purple or actually the place here that sells it was closed so i went somewhere else and ended up with the MOBIL1 anyhow Nnaboy I think you should get the CAI if your gettin a BB tune i was thinkin of a BB tune as well but want to get the lift kit for the 35" tires i mean choices are crazy at the moment plus i get my trucc bac next week gotta do my insurance as well as save enuff to have my system up and running perfect the 1st time. can't ride around with no musix. IMO i would say the CAI it would make me happier then a ticcet for the horn..
