    Good day Forum members,

    I purchased a 2025 Tundra SR5 Crew Max 6.5 last week.
    Drove it home about 2,400 miles.

    Changed the oil at 533 & 1515 via dealerships along the way and sent in samples to Blackstone.
    I'll add the results in the post dedicated to Blackstone reports.

    Kept the filters.

    If there is a post here on the forums with instructions on interpreting the findings please reply with link. I did see the video from Car Care Nut, which may suffice.

    Also, if anyone in the the San Antonio, TX area is interested in assisting with cutting open the filters and providing their thoughts that would be most welcomed.
    I'm not particularly auto-mechanically inclined and don't have a tool to open the filter (though I can pick one up).

    Thanks

    Fair deal. Exactly what I wanted.
    Tow mirrors, 6.5 bed, good dealership, several other boxes checked.

    Local dealerships declined my efforts to place an order to meet my specifications.
