The improvements in oil additives and filters over the years typically let you go longer between oil changes. In Europe, they pretty much exclusively use high-end synthetic oils and filters that let them go 1-2 years between oil changes.

I fell in love with the Motor city when I first visited the city in 2014 and then I took my mother in 2015. My mother and I volunteered with a tree farm off 7 mile Road and we had a great time helping and checking out downtown. My mom passed away on 5/7/24 from Bile Duct cancer and to honor her I’m going back to Detroit to volunteer again and tour the city next month! For your, MOM! RIP 🙏

Thanks! I have not stayed in any hotel in Detroit since I live in the metro area, so I cannot answer this question 100%. Generally, any of the hotels in the downtown core is usually in a safe area, and I would recommend parking in parking area designated by the hotel especially if it is a garage. You will most likely be OK as long as you do not keep any valuables out in the open, leave your windows fully closed, and keep your doors locked.

I was at baggage claim and it was crazy!! We were on 6 and got switch to 8. It had a glitch and the carousel wasn’t spinning. After we got our bags my brother was in town for the Motor City Comic Con. (Since I live in suburban Detroit) My dad’s bag spot accidentally taken from some dude. And it was crazy. After a long wait I was tired and ached my head. I was so bored that I was looking outside. And decided to sit with my suitcase Silvia. (That’s what I named her) we had a trip home wonderful and got our bag back. The highlight of the airport is the signs, elevators, escalators, icons and arrows! I was born to fly!
