Dirty gritty drained oil when I did the oil change today

I had the RL oil in for about 6K (minus a few miles).

I have to say...I'm not a fan of the longer oil change intervals that everybody is pushing these days. It may be good for the environment, and good for the car companies' marketing...but it's not good for an engine.

Agreed. Also, you do know that oil is recycled these days, right?
