Took my car to dealer today to have GMPP off road exhaust put on. Car has 975 miles on it. Told them to change oil. Service manager told me not to waste my money and wait until it needed it.

It comes with synthetic stick with synthetic. Changed mine at 1000, dealer guy kinda looked at me funny but didn't say a word, guess they were happy to take my $80.
