Hi Lee, I have been using Mobile 1 since 1979 and swear by it. I first started using the product after talking to my boss. He had a VW bug and used Mobile 1. He told me the story that he about 38,000 miles and had taken it in for inspection. The shop forman asked him when was the last time that the valves were set. He was informed that it should have been done a long time ago. He gave permission and a little while later the forman came out and asked him what oil he was using. He was told that the engine was unbelievably clean and that there was no wear on the valves. Then my boss gave me a copy of some early testing of the product where they took two identical cars and ran one for 15,000 miles using a good SAE oil and the other was run 150,000 with Mobile 1. When the engines were torn down the car with the 15,000 miles had more engine wear. That is when I switched. With my Grand Caravan AWD I quickly changed to Mobile 1 my gas mileage around town went from 13.2 to 15.6. Lenny

Most of the prices seem very high per quart , but is it worth it? thanks Lee -- Short people get rained on last.
