Have had great luck with this method on a Dodge Charger and Lincoln Town Car. I have a mechanic friend who says I'm running too long, but I have never had any wear-related engine issues using this method, in over 150k miles. Any other suggestions for extended performance oil? My Honda has been dealer serviced until I had oil changed to semi-synthetic at Jiffy Lube before I left for home last week. 57k on her now.

I myself run my oil until 8500 on regular 5w20 full syn since the break in period and do not have an issue (they say I can run another 1k but I'm good where I'm at). I get my oil analyzed once a year to make sure the engine is running pristine. Currently I'm at 190k with not one issue.
