Oil 5000 miles +

Just a brief point: it is only a myth that Mobil 1 and other oils are not true synthetics. I called Mobil 1, and read their official stockholders' report, and they explicitly state that Mobil 1 is a true synthetic from synthetic stock, and not a cracked natural oil.

There is no SAE/API/ILSAC definition for "chemist handbook defined" synthetic anymore - its been removed from the books. Show us a Mobil document that shows the base stock chemistry of mobil one 5W-30, otherwize its a BS and hogwash and misinformation. Guys/gals, another path to the truth: Look at the spec on the oil, available on manufacturers webpage; if the pour point is not below -45deg C AND a Flash point above 250 deg C, then its not homogeneous pure synth basestock, just a blend. Oh, forgot, Mobil 5W-30 doesnt meet its specs - so I guess ANYTHING they say is BS. Like blaming the Hurricane on the lack of Mobil oil on the shelf - when the real reason we can suppose is a "silent recall".
