Seems a bit unkind taking the poor thing near so much water, but it looks like you both survived.....

11 gallon oil changes every month.

Oil filter, Luberfiner filter, fuel filters, air filter. I bought my oil (Delvac 1130, IIRC) by the 55 gallon drum, filters by the cases, and grease the same way. Oil/grease from a local distributor. Filters from NAPA - they'd give me a discount. I got pretty good at changing oil/filters/lube in around 2 hours, which included jacking the front end up to grease the king pins. I'd carry a 5 gallon can of oil 'on the road' with me, as the DD would start leaking and burning the oil about ten days following the oil change.
