I've always wondered about these - so what does it tell you? I mean I see the ranges and you look to be within them in most cases. But whats the most important factor or things to look for?

I guess the metals to worry about would be excessive aluminum, or iron, or major metals like that... it also tells you if you have water, fuel, coolant, or any other crap in the oil that doesn't belong...so you can bring it to the dealer's attention BEFORE it becomes a major problem..the little personalized paragraph is nice, and just sums up any issues, concerns, or questions... and it only costs 22.50 which includes the oil sample kit

Too late, I've already save it and I know where you live now Marc
But wait, you were discussing pistols with me via PM a few weeks ago weren't you. So I guess we're both covered.
In all seriousness, I agree man - black that shit out!
