End Of An Era --- 623,000 Miles

[Shatto]

Shatto's 1998 Dakota is gone. Sold and replaced.

Using Amsoil lubricants and By-Pass filtration, the 3.9 Magnum engine and the automatic transmission amassed 623,000 miles.

Sort of proves Amsoil products aid long life.

Here's what was used:

Engine: Amsoil 0W-30 oil

Air Filter: Ea Universal ........... Nope. They no longer make the foam filter.

I could use the money!

Replaced it with a 2006 Tundra access cab, SR5 TRD that I found on Craigs List.
18,500 miles. Paid $13,500.

Nope, just proves that a Dodge Dakota is better than a GMC Sonoma.
