Afternoon folks.

Just finished a 2.5 hour net meeting with New Zealand and now I got an inperson meeting in the office conference room.

Just waiting for some other people to finish a conference call so they can join us

The Motomaster Formula 1 Synthetic is rebranded Shell Synthetic oil. This is my second oil change since I bought the truck in September. Truck had been sitting for a year so I first ran a synthic blend with a Wix filter, with the idea being to work out any sludge that might have built up before switching to full synth.. I put 6-7,000 kms on it and have the full synthetic. That price for the motomaster synthetic was almost half the price of other brands.

I use motormaster or castrol synthetic oil only. The only filters I use are motormaster.

Oh, and I am still waiting for this meeting to start!

Looking back a couple pages I saw the oil talk.
So can I assume the Motomaster synthetic is a good oil for older trucks as well.

Having only been there in summer, I can say then its a bit crowded, but enjoyable.
Wish you much luck with the truck, and have fun.

Good morning BC.

Well, five hours of meetings yesterday. Atleast the when it was net conferencing with NZ I could mute the speaker phone and make comments to my coworker

The three hour in person meeting with one of the big wigs from NZ sure wore me down though! I ussually can't go more then an our without getting out of my chair!

Things are a little wet up here. It is hovering around freezing and the roads are crazy slick. It was so slick in my driveway that I couldn't get to the doors of my truck to get in! The logging trucks were keeping their chains on all the way to the mill and the only reason why I made it down my driveway is because I have studded tires. Getting back up is going to be fun
