Upgrades in my sig.
Over a year (Jan 09) of ownership.
@ 10500 miles and I'm about to change my oil for the second time. First time at 20%. Second time at 15% on my Maint. Minder.
I drive mine like I stole it . Plus I do a lot of short drives and a few very long ones.

(I also switched to Mobil 1 full synthetic my first oil change)
