I saw a Savage in a Wal-Mart parking lot, ohh,, prollee 7 or 8 years ago. Ratty ol' thing, what wasnt scratched up was rusty & the seat was pretty rough, but it had over 90,000 miles on it. Didnt look like more than 2 or 3 of them were from it being dragged behind a truck,, POint is, it MADE 90+ Thowzund Miles & based on the looks of it, it had not been given the best maintenance. Id bet it had never seen any fancy schmancy oil & Id bet it went a little further between oil changes than anyone here would dream of doing. And That brings me to the next point,, I think the Rotella T- 15/40 is plenty good enough to keep these engines happy long enough to wear the rest of the poor thing OUT,,& the $$$ saved by not buying $8.00 a quart oil ( or whatever the current fancy schmancy oils cost) will help put gas in it to help wear it out,
