Actually, it's a complete waste of a dwindling resource. Changing your
oil more frequently than necessary is environmentally irresponsible and
provides NO benefits to your engine.

Waste of money, IMO. Additionally, aftermarket warranty companies have a
disturbing habit of going out of business. If the extended warranty
isn't from the factory, you can't count on it being there when you need it.
