I'd have to agree with that. Myself, I use Castrol. Or if I don't have a lot of money, then I'll go with Walmarts cheap stuff. Oil changes in my cars over the years, have gone over the limits. But they still run. I have damaged a couple engines due to low oil. Long stories, Cars were new to me and I was dumb enough to assume there was enough oil in them. Otherwise, I have many time gone over 6,000 miles on dino oil and my TII still runs good at 220,000 miles. I've only put synthetic in it once or twice. I do add a quart of Mobil 1 here and there, now days. I've heard you get a lot of the benny's from it (like cold weather starting) without all 5 quarts. Besides, I'd rather change my oil on a regular basis for about $6.00 instead of paying $18.00 for Mobil 1. I'd probably think differently if I bought the cars new, but they have a lot of miles and run fine so far.
