From the BP link:


That article is garbage as it purposefully misinterprets what was said. They estimate that using today's technology and the known reserves there are 53 years left. Fortunately technology is rapidly improving for oil extraction and reserves are being found at record rates. I work with a lot of petroleum engineers who say that it will be countless generations before we even have to start thinking about running out of oil but in the end nobody really knows.

We do need to invest in alternative energy sources not because we need to replace oil but because we need to be able to produce MUCH larger amounts of energy to keep up with technology innovation.
Do you have anything to refute this information? Scientific analysis rather than "I know a guy who says otherwise". The original article I posted is from Stanford university. One of the most prestigious colleges in the world.

As entire countries catch up to more industrialized nations, gas consumption would increase obviously. Which would expedite the exhaustion of resources further. But this shouldn't be an issue because countries have already made the pledge to phase our gas powered cars. The big players in the world are moving to do this. So that will allow gas to last quite awhile longer. The only people who will be mad at this are people connected (the ultra rich) to companies that extract oil from the ground.

But the world is all about innovation and change. There were a lot of rich people who were upset when the car replaced horses. Sales for horses dropped tremendously. I'm sure there were quite a few people that pouted and cried about cars vs horses during that time: "Cars are dangerous, they move too fast, they need oil, where am I going to get oil for my car? My horse doesn't need any of that! They can just eat grass. It's everywhere!". Eventually those complainers got old and died. Now everyone owns a car. 😂

Doesn't it stink?
sometimes it can make the shop a little smoky/smelly for a little while, usually when you first fire it up, but it clears out pretty quickly, and when it's up and running good, it's perfectly fine. Works out really well for us, as we would have to pay someone to pick up our waste oil. Now we store it in 55gal drums over the summer, and that also allows us to accept used oil from people in our community for free. one of these https://www.lanair.com/

A good mechanic wouldn't let a car go for 10 years without checking and changing filters, spark plugs, transmission fluid, shocks, bushings, etc.

Coolant, brake fluid, tranny fluid, gear oil, etc do not last forever.
As a mechanic though, when you tell people these things, you don't want to feel like you're pushing things on people. I never try to sell anyone anything they don't need, even if an air filter is recommended maintenance at a certain mileage, I always check it first to see if it actually needs replacing. You're not going to get rich pushing air filters on people, but you will do very well gaining their trust! auto tech 40yrs...

Got mine done through this program. Pretty awesome service. Didn't try to upswell me. They even through in full synthetic because my car is high mileage. I have to say that Even something simple like this makes me appreciate Mazda as a company.
Thanks for sharing OP. Saved me $80 and got a car wash too.

Do you have to remove your entire engine to access the filter or something? That's ridiculous
It requires removal of the front bumper, the left front wheel and brake assembly. It is ridiculous. Luckally I only need 1 change a year.
