OK, we have established that driving 150,000 miles without any Oil Changes is possible, but is it Economical?
How much do you spend on conventional Oil Changes, if for example you utilize one of the many Quick Oil Change Outfits?
According to a 1997 survey the average price paid for Lube & Oil Filter is $24.32. And all Quick Oil Change Outlets recommend Oil Changes every 3,000 miles for maximum vehicle service life.
That is 50 Oil Changes @ $24.32 = $1,216.00
And that is just for Motor Oil / Oil Filter & Labor.
The scheduled Transmission Oil maintenance would add up another $ 96.00
TOTAL COST = $ 1,312.00
OK, just by switching to SynLube Lube-4-Life Lubricants there was $316.00 saved on Oil Changes.
But, the saving goes beyond the obvious.
Remember the 15% fuel mileage improvement?
The test vehicle used 4,754.358 Gallons of fuel @ average price of $1.2972 or a total of $ 6,167.35 was spent on Gasoline. (Price is the actual Price paid per Gallon of Gasoline at the Pump and includes all State & Local Taxes).
Using the same average price but the original 27.38 MPG the vehicle would have consumed of 5,478.451 Gallons of fuel at a cost of $ 7,106.64, resulting in a NET SAVING of $ 939.29, or just about the total Price paid for the use of SynLube Lube-4-Life Lubricants.

Although most motorists never consider the Environmental costs of
Oil Changes, it is worthy of everyone's attention.
Motorists on the average generate one Gallon of Used Motor Oil from every oil change, and of course a Used Motor Oil Filter.
That is over 250,000,000 Gallons of Used Motor Oil and 250,000,000 Used Oil Filters generated annually in the USA ! And, unfortunately only a small percentage of all this Waste is actually collected, and even smaller fraction is ever recycled!
In case of our test car, following Environmental Savings were realized:
50 Conventional Oil Changes would have generated over 3 Quarts of Used Oil each, that is 150 Quarts or 37.5 Gallons of Used Motor Oil.
With SynLube Lube-4-Life Lubricants there was no Used Motor Oil generated - NONE - that is 37.5 Gallons of possible environmental pollution - ELIMINATED !
50 Conventional Oil Changes would have generated 50 Used Oil Filters.
With SynLube Lube-4-Life Oil Filter there was one Used Oil Filter generated @ 100,000 miles - ONE - that is 49 Used Oil Filters that would need to be drained and then disposed of - ELIMINATED !

The saving goes even further, TIME. Something we never have enough of. Spending on the average about an hour for each and every Oil Change adds up to 50 hours or more over the service life of a vehicle.
With SynLube Lube-4-Life Lubricants the total time spent on installation was 53 minutes. There was about a minute spent each time oil was checked and/or added, however since this was done during Fuel Fill Up while Gasoline was pumped, no extra additional time was needed.
Net Saving about 49 Hours, hey that's One-Week Vacation from your Job!.
