No I haven't had it that long, about 8 months or so. I actually had 3 free oil changes from the dealer when I bought the car. So I was like hey less work for me. haha. shame on me, I know I know. I went from owning 5 different silverados to a fwd s/c car, so it is a lil' bit different to me

Lee, I put in the purple and I am about to put in the new al605's. The spark plugs will be later tonight though, I have to go into work and check on a few things.
