is 5000 miles too long to wait for an oil change?

[127.0.0.1]

every stinking oil discussion has 'amsoil' in it somewhere.

the ONLY reason for amsoil fanbois is: Amsoil markets their products through a Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) network of dealers


MLM and that fact that every backwater racetrack has someone who is trying to make a buck (it is a business, is it not ?) and tout the incredible capabilities of amsoil vs (xyz) oil...so they may sell some....there is more 'word of mouth' about amsoil and the grapevine and somehow people seem to think that carries more weight than corporate marketing and buying something off the shelf at wally-world.

amsoil is no better and no worse than any other big brand oil with the same API specification. do not believe the hype, because it is hype.

this very post of mine is going to get someones panties in a bunch I imagine.

the chemists at Amsoil are good and they won't make a bogus product, but you are not missing anything
by not buying amsoil.

Actually that was the reason I switched from amsoil, couldn't find a seller in Wenatchee. Went with royal purple since I can buy it almost anywhere.

AMSoil makes all their products (minus one, because it was a customer request) with Group IV bases.

That can't be said for Mobil1 (EXCEPT for the zero-weight [0w-**] oils).


They have one of the best additive packages in the synthetic automotive application industry.

Castrol has one of the worst.


They don't rely on colours gimmicks to sell their oil.

Can't say the same about Royal Purple.


They don't try to pass off "full synthetic" from a Group III base-stock.

Sorry, Pennzoil, you're out.


They don't need to run million-dollar "feel good" commercials about how one "feels the power" with their superior oil.

Sorry Quaker State, maybe next time.






Ten bucks says Quaifer is talking out of his ass, AND has never had an oil analysis done. You know, a sample of data to see where your Si stands, fuel-dilution, flash point, etc. Any takers?

Lets see some facts to back this up!!!
