Default First Oil Change today.

First oil change today. I just hit 11K miles today, (2006 V-6 that I bought with 9500 miles) I wanted to see the oil so I asked the guy at the shop to drain some into a jar I brought with me. The oil looked pretty nasty so I went ahead and got my engine flushed. I dont think the oil had ever been changed. Car runs much better after the flush and replacing the oil with a full synthetic. $160 total for the flush, oil, filter, they topped off all my fluids, tire pressure, and installed a cabin air filter for free since I was a first time customer and didn't want my tires rotated yet. They also commented on how good my C&L intake, and Street Scene grille with centered fogs looked! Just a note to used car buyers, get your oil changed, you never know how long it has been in there when you buy the car used.
