It's got 140k on it now and still purring like a kitten (due for an oil change in another 10k). The hardest part is not changing it every 5k. So, going with the amsoil, I skip 4 oil changes saving what, 24 quarts of oil for every 25k that I drive? I think that if you add up all that oil, the filters, and your time under the car you'll find that I'm coming out ahead with the Amsoil. And Hey, I'm not a rep or dealer, I just use the stuff. Also, I'm kind of lazy so I don't want to spend all that time under the car if I can be driving instead.

Thats nice and all but I bet the inside of your filter looks like hell. I would change it a little more frequent and then top off the oil. Something ever happens and you plug the filter your motor is going to be gone before you know it cause you are not maintaining it.
I'm not knocking syn oil at all though.. I use it in the baja and go 5-6k on my changes with genuine subaru filters.
