This is reasonable anecdotal evidence. Note that if you changed your oil
more often earlier on, it might not be taking so much oil to run now.

This is probably true, but I bet a lot of them are winding up in other
places (like on your back bumper). And I presume you don't have emission
standards where you live either.

That's okay, it's available as a third-party retrofit these days, even
if it didn't come standard from the factory.

So Nate, was the reply everything you hoped it would be? I must admit
that I never saw the "purile ****" retort coming! That's some witty
auto-response program our useless buddy has, huh? I'm guessing he's
atleast as manly in person.
