same thing with roads.
They came up with a new way to pave, in which chopped up tires is thrown in with blacktop. It is called "super pave" and is suppose to last over 20 yrs. But they won't use it, but construction companies will have no business.

if people have these great ideas like this, why cant they make a car that never needs service. They have already come up with some extrodinary ****, I think they could make a car that never needs service.

if you left m1 0w-20 in your engine for 100k without any makeup oil, or even with makeup oil it'd shear down a hell of a lot, and itd be even more watery than it always is. m1 is pretty stable, but not that stable.
