" You can't kill a 3.8 , you can only kill its fuel pump"
Lmao.
I know i just posted this in another thread but my dad went from about 115k-140k miles on a 3.8 without changing the oil once. I think blew a head gasket like a few months after we sold it , but that was 30k miles on conventional oil. lol.
