I'd probably still have the '08 except for a worrying amount of bearing material that showed up in the last few oil reports. When the last report said "keep an eye on your oil pressure" I decided it was time to move on to a newer vehicle. It was still running strong and not making any noises but since I was planning to throw a few bolt-ons at it I didn't want to run into any warranty problems if it decided to grenade on me.

what kind of bearing material was showing in the reports?
