Way too old to get that. I’m 40, have to late teen boys, they didn’t get it either. I think I live in a generation vaccum.

Milky gray means nothing. I change ALL my fluids out of new vehicles at 1,000 miles and on my GM vehicles they all come out milky gray and smell funny.
I don't care who makes the vehcile I never trust what they put in for fluids so I always us high quality fluids and dump what they put in. Same goes for shocks on new vehciles. I change them out at 1,000 miles also.

Why would you change the shocks at 1000 miles? OEM shocks are usually some of the best made, and if you're talking about something like the Nivomat GM shocks you'd be spending $1500 for no reason. Pretty much any of the SUV shocks with Autoride are high quality and expensive. And the fluids GM puts in their vehicles is high quality also, full synthetic these days.

I’ve been doing the same thing with fluids on every new vehicle I’ve purchased at the 1-2k mile mark for the same reason, plus there is always break in metal in the fluid and I don’t want that floating around in there.
